Reunions will take place during Homecoming Weekend, October 19 and 20. Please mark your calendars now and plan to join us for this special weekend!
Please consider recognizing your “milestone reunion” (25 th and 50 th) by making a special reunion gift to the College. Your participation honors the role that Messiah College played in shaping your future. In addition, reunion gifts make a lasting impact for generations to come. Your collective class gift will be recognized during your reunion celebration at Homecoming.
What amount should I consider?
Although levels of support will vary from class to class and from person to person, we ask classmates celebrating a milestone reunion to “stretch” their giving in honor of their reunion. A reunion year is the perfect time to reflect on your past giving, evaluate the impact your giving has on current students and consider increasing your support for the College.
When should I make my gift?
All gifts received between July 1, 2006 and October 19, 2007 will count toward your reunion class gift total.
