Why Give
10.
Companies and foundations often base their level of support for the College on alumni giving rates.
9. Third-parties, such as U.S. News and World Report and other college rankings, use a college’s giving statistics as an indicator of how alumni value their college experience. Prospective students and their parents often look to these rankings when selecting colleges.
8. Financial support enables Messiah College to retain and attract outstanding faculty who are both committed Christians and highly qualified within their chosen profession.
7. 96% of Messiah College students receive some type of financial aid.
6. Gifts make a Messiah College education possible for deserving students who may not otherwise be able to attend Messiah.
5. It would take an additional $30 million in institutional endowment funds to replace the same amount of funding that Student Impact Fund gifts provide each year.
4. In 2006-2007, Messiah College will expend almost $20 million in financial aid. Messiah College seeks to be a good steward of the gifts we receive.
3.
Your gifts – no matter the size – are an investment in our students who will leave Messiah College equipped with an education that will impact our world in countless ways.
2. In 2005-06, Messiah students contributed over 60,000 hours by voluntarily participating in local outreach projects as well as spring and summer missions and service trips.
1. Messiah remains faithful to its mission – to educate men and women toward maturity of intellect, character, and Christian faith in preparation for lives of service, leadership, and reconciliation in church and society. Thank you!

"My first year at Messiah College was very rewarding and filled with many enriching opportunities. Through observing the spirit of servanthood that is so evident on campus, and through participating in various missions opportunities made possible by the Student Impact Fund, I have developed a greater passion to serve God by serving others. As a recipient of the Dean's scholarship, I want to thank you for your generous contribution to Messiah College. You have helped to provide me with an education led by exemplary servants of God, one which will prepare me for my personal role in ministry."

"My Messiah experience extended to England and Los Angeles and allowed me to minister across the United States. Those four amazing years continue to shape my life today. I give back because I want Messiah students to have similar life-changing opportunities. "
