Young alumni (first 10 years after graduation) are among Knox’s most loyal donors. In fact, many schools in the ACM envy the participation by our fantastic young alumni!
In order to maintain our stellar young alumni giving status -- the classes of 1999 through 2008 were challenged to maintain 30% participation in each respective class. And each class responded in a HUGE way! Collectively, these classes achieved 35% participation.
Young alumni played a big part in helping Knox to earn $100,000 from Duke and Nancy Petrovich -- 5,523 alumni gave to Knox this year! Many of our young alumni spent time calling, e-mailing, or texting friends to encourage them to give to the Challenge. We could not have accomplished this feat without the help of our wonderful alumni. Thank you!!!
Our new young alumni campaign will begin in September, and numbers for the classes of 2000-2009 will be posted at that time. However, if you would like to get a head start on the 2009-2010 fiscal year, give now and your gift will be counted for the young alumni campaign!
