Class Gift
In the past, each class has participated in a reunion giving program. The donations are targeted toward a specific cause or project. The 40th reunion committee has set a goal or raising $15,000 toward an endowed scholarship. ($15,000 is the minimum accepted for an endowed scholarship.)
During committee discussions, it was felt that there is no greater gift than supporting a current student. With the increasing cost of attending college, scholarships often make the difference in whether a student actually completes his/her education.
With an endowed scholarship, our collective gift will continue on in perpetuity. It will be named
--Classes of 1966, 1967, 1968, 1969 1970
Endowed Scholarship--
in honor of our graduation years. To assist those awarding scholarships, the committee has suggested the following criteria: financial need, 3.2 GPA, Junior or Senior level, demonstrated leadership qualities while attending UW-Stout, and the reciepient must be a first generation college attendee.
Please consider donating to this fund to help us establish a continuing, meaningful memorial to the wonderful recollections we all share of our years at Stout and the excellent foundation our education helped establish in our lives. Won’t you please consider helping to guarantee that another generation’s students will graduate from our Alma Mater?
For your convenience, a pledge card was included in the May mailing which you should have received. If you did not receive the card or would like additional information please contact the Stout Alumni Office at:
