Info For
Alumni, students, and friends of Elmira College can share their everlasting love for the Purple and Gold by participating in this year’s Elmira Everlasting on Wednesday, April 24.
Once again the annual spring day of giving includes a bit of fun with the Class Challenge 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 a few will win the title, 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.
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.
Participate in the Class Challenge. The size of the gift doesn’t matter – whether someone from the Class of 1989 gives $19.89 or $198.90 or $1,989, every gift counts. Gifts can be made via our online GIVE page or by visiting your Class donation page to make your gift.
What if my class isn’t listed? If you don't see your Class listed, you can either 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.
