Volunteer for the Knox Fund

The Knox Fund makes a tangible difference in students' lives every minute of every day. Volunteering for the Knox Fund helps you to stay connected to Knox and to your classmates. Each of us has our own best ways of being involved. Find yours. The following list is not exhaustive, but merely a stimulus to the imagination.

Class Agents
Class Agents are volunteers for development. With the assistance of the Knox Fund staff, Class Agents send one or two letters each year to their classmates to encourage them to make gifts to the Knox Fund. Staff provide printing, envelopes and postage. Personalized letters from peers are vital to a successful fundraising program.

To volunteer, contact Jeri Candor, assistant director of the Knox Fund, toll free at 888-KNOXCOL (888-566-9265), or 309-341-7765. View a list of current Class Agents.

Reunion Campaigns
In addition to the class reunion activities at Homecoming, Reunion classes may choose to make a special effort to increase their class's financial contribution to the College through increased gifts and increased class participation.  Help organize a Class Reunion.

To volunteer as a Reunion Campaign Chair or committee member, contact Julie Layer, director of the Knox Fund, at 888-KNOXCOL (888-566-9265), or 309-341-7550. Learn more about Reunion Campaigns.
