The KSC Faculty and Staff Campaign — You Can Make the Difference!
From Genny Alexander, Development: As faculty and staff, you are part of our KSC tradition of preparing graduates to lead, shape, and change our world. You motivate students to seek the good in all and to choose to make a difference.
There are many other ways you can make a difference in the lives of students at Keene State!
A gift to the Unrestricted Fund will designate your donation to the area most in need on campus. With costs of college rising, and the availability of student aid sources becoming scarce, a gift to the Unrestricted Fund will truly make a difference in the lives of students on campus.
Another popular fund that many staff and faculty have given to is the Operating Staff Dependent Scholarship Endowment. The balance of this fund is currently $11,169.78. To begin awarding students this scholarship, the Endowment needs to be at $20,000. A gift to this fund will also make a difference in the lives of students (and your co-workers!) on campus.
Tim Garland, President of the OS Council and an electrician on campus, has designated his payroll deduction gift to the Operating Staff Dependent Scholarship Endowment. He sees this fund as a way to directly help those who work at KSC and their dependents, and will give his co-workers’ children a better shot at attending college. Tim feels it is important to contribute to the greater community and give back to a place that provides all of us so many opportunities and interactions with a diverse group of people.
No amount is too small to make a difference. Participation in the campaign demonstrates our commitment to our students and to the College, and each gift adds on to others to have a real impact on the College and our students. Our goal, of course, is to encourage 100% of our colleagues to support Keene State through an annual gift. Throughout March and April you will receive emails and updates on the campaign.
Together we make a difference to the future of Keene State College! Thank you for your gifts and for everything you do for our students!
