Why Give?
Support the value of a Kalamazoo College education
Gifts from alumni, parents and friends of Kalamazoo College
support the aspects of Kalamazoo College that attract
and retain excellent students and faculty: features like
a strong, fully integrated international studies program,
a student to faculty ratio of 12:1, numerous career exploration
experiences with alumni and industry leaders, and opportunities
for graduate level academic research and writing, as practiced
in the Senior Individualized Project.
Your gift indicates the College has a strong and committed
base of supporters. Many foundations and corporations
consider the percentage of alumni participation in the
Kalamazoo College Fund before determining their level
of funding.
Bright, motivated students converge upon Kalamazoo College
and they thrive amongst dedicated faculty in small classes.
Armed with knowledge and professional preparation, students
leave Kalamazoo College with a commitment to lifelong
learning, a powerful tool that will serve them throughout
their lives.
One student who benefits from your generosity can uniquely
and profoundly affect the lives of thousands.
Support worthy students in their endeavors to
attend Kalamazoo College
Tuition only covers 75 percent of what it actually costs
to provide a Kalamazoo College education. This means that
every student receives a “silent scholarship” contributed
from the annual support of alumni, parents and friends
of Kalamazoo College.
Over 98 percent of Kalamazoo College students receive
some form of financial assistance each year. Your gift
will support students in need.
