What is the Senior Class Gift to the Yale Alumni Fund?
The Senior Class Gift is a three-week, class-based effort directed toward raising unrestricted, current use funds. Classes typically raise more than $20,000 and have achieved participation rates of up to 89% (see the results from 2009). The most important part of this initiative is to educate seniors about giving back to Yale and to inspire them to take meaningful action in furthering Yale’s future. The Senior Class Gift is a chance for the Class of 2010 to set a precedent for annual giving in the class and to help support the goals of the Yale Tomorrow campaign.
