Elmira Everlasting One Week Away

Join Elmira College one week from today to show your everlasting love for the Purple and Gold during this year’s Elmira Everlasting, Wednesday, April 24.

Fundraising priorities for this year’s Elmira Everlasting include:

  • The Annual Fund at Elmira College, which supports the College’s greatest needs each year — from direct student support and scholarships to buildings and grounds to classroom upgrades and enhancements.

  • The Turf Field. Elmira College is moving forward with a multi-sport turf field – an exciting opportunity that will not only enhance the College’s athletics, but also support enrollment and retention efforts, and support mental and physical well-being on campus as identified in the College’s 2023-2028 Strategic Plan.

How to Get Involved

Participate in the Class Challenge. Grab your classmates and join the fun to see which alumni and current classes can generate the greatest number of gifts and be named the “Most Everlasting Class” and “Most Everlasting Current Class.” While the title will be won by a few, everyone can feel good in the knowledge that they are supporting the strong academic programs, exceptional undergraduate research, study abroad opportunities, and a supportive community environment at Elmira College.

What if my class isn’t listed? You can still participate! Become a fundraiser and create a page for your Class or click here to make your gift. Don't worry, we'll make sure your gift is counted towards your Class for the Class Challenge.

Double your impact with a special challenge, available on April 24 only! With each challenge, your gift counts as one, their gift counts as one. That means more gifts representing your Class! Participate in one or all of the following giving challenges.

  • Calling all “Graduates of the Last Decade”! If you graduated between 2013 and 2023, gather your classmates and make your gifts from 7:00-8:00 a.m. Wednesday morning. President and Mrs. Lindsay will give $25 (up to $1,000) for every GOLD donor who gives during that time.

  • It’s Power Hour! Jason Keith ’02 will give $25 (up to $1,000) for every donor who gives from noon-1:00 p.m.!

  • Double your gift! Thanks to a generous donor, any gift of $250 to $1,000 will be matched dollar for dollar, up to $5,000. This is the perfect way to double your impact!

  • Kat Slye-Hernandez ’12 will match every Class of 2012 donation of $20.12 or more that goes towards the annual fund or the turf field up to $2,012!
