Why I Give

Gifts of all sizes make an impact. These donors share why they answered The Call to Lead.

I believe that where I give reflects what I value. I value my education. I value my memories created at Dartmouth. I value lessons taught by Professor Irene Kacandes and Professor Catherine Randall in Dartmouth Hall.

I give because I love Dartmouth and had an amazing experience.

I was able to attend Dartmouth thanks to its generous financial aid. I am forever grateful to the College and want to give back, especially to help students like me, who couldn't attend a place like Dartmouth without generous financial aid.

The iconic Dartmouth Hall played a central role in my Dartmouth education, as a Spanish major, and I have many fond memories of it. I would love to see it remain in all its glory for future generations of the Dartmouth community.

It was a great privilege to be among the first classes of women at Dartmouth. I discovered so much about my God-given purpose and ability to make a difference "round the girdled earth".

As my kids prepare to apply to college, it makes me think about why I applied to Dartmouth and why it holds such a special place in my heart. I made lifetime friends at Dartmouth. I learned to think broadly, to tackle problems creatively, and to express my thoughts both in writing and verbally, clearly. I have had a variety of careers, and the skills I gained at Dartmouth have helped me to succeed in each. I tell my kids that my hope for them as they seek the college that is best for them is that they find a place that will feel like home forever.

Dartmouth set me off on a path to success in all areas of my life. I made lasting friendships and Reunions continue to remind me of the special bond all of us Dartmouth grads share! We are a fun group, especially Class of ‘89!
