Story

It is challenge day. It is your day. It is Elmira Everlasting.

Today, Wednesday, April 24, is the day memories inspire and we ask our loyal alumni to #LivePurpleGiveGold by giving a gift to ensure future generations have the chance to attend Elmira College and share in the memories and traditions so many hold dear.

Stand with your class by giving a gift that reflects your Class Year. Whether that’s $20.05, $200.50, or $2,005, making a gift, large or small, makes an immediate and direct impact for our students.

Don't forget, if you would like to designate your gift to a specific fund, like the Turf Field, include it in your gift comments.

How can you get involved?

1. Find your Class in the list of Fundraisers. If you don't see your Class, that's OK. You can either become a fundraiser and create a page for your Class or just click the button above. Don't worry, we'll make sure your gift is counted toward your Class for the Class Challenge.

2. Participate in one of our special challenges - April 24 only!

- 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 made to the Annual Fund will be matched dollar for dollar, up to $5,000. This is the perfect way to double your impact!

- Attention Class of 2012! 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!

- Double your turf field gift! Thanks to a generous donor, any gift of $500 or more will be matched dollar for dollar, up to $7,500!

With each challenge, your gift counts as one, their gift counts as one. That means more gifts representing your Class!

3. Share a post about why EC is “Your Place”!
