True Blue Society
Congratulations to the Class of 2003 for winning the True Blue competition! And many thanks to all 389 donors who made gifts to The Rochester Annual Fund. The Class of 2003 had the highest participation rate among Young Alumni, those who graduated 1999-2008, for fiscal year 2009 (July 1, 2008 – June 30, 2009).
How did your class do? Check out the chart with giving participation rates and the honor roll.
Through The Rochester Annual Fund, you partner with the University of Rochester, touching every aspect of student life. Your participation in the annual giving program supports the innovative academic programs and research at the University of Rochester. The power of gifts to The Rochester Annual Fund lies in their flexibility and their immediacy.
WHAT DOES YOUR GIFT SUPPORT?
- Alumni gifts to The Rochester Annual Fund make it possible…
- To provide undergraduate scholarships and fellowships to make a Rochester education more affordable
- To enhance campus life through improved services, facilities, residences, technology, health and safety
- For students to be actively involved in the learning process through cutting-edge research and academic inquiry with the best faculty
Tuition alone cannot provide for the depth and breadth of the Rochester experience, so your gift is essential to offering the best programs, faculty, facilities, and student aid. Your contributions inspire the minds of students and make great things happen every day.
Thanks for being True Blue!
What is the True Blue Society?
