It’s Our Turn: The Alumni Challenge is On!

Ready to show some L&C love? Our annual Alumni Challenge is on, and this year, the stakes are double! The Board of Alumni is stepping up in a huge way and will match every single gift, dollar-for-dollar, that you make by September 30—up to our $20,000 goal. That means your gift today has twice the power to make a difference for current students.

So, why give? Think about it: that critical thinking, global mindset, and problem-solving savvy you carry with you every day? You got that right here at Lewis & Clark. Giving back is one of the best ways to say thanks and pay that forward.

Alumni Board President Dr. Stacy Thompson, a proud ’79 grad, knows this firsthand. Her journey to a successful career in higher education began with a scholarship that made her L&C education a reality. She’s a perfect example of how our community’s support shapes futures.

“As alumni, we are Lewis & Clark’s best advocates,” says Dr. Thompson. “Our collective participation is crucial for L&C’s longevity.”

Did you know the average financial aid package for a full time student last year was $46,058? An important part of that aid comes directly from us—the alumni community. Your participation, no matter the amount, is what keeps L&C accessible and strong.

Let’s come together and take on the Alumni Challenge. Your gift helps support the next generation of resilient, creative leaders.

Don’t wait! Make your gift by September 30 and watch your support go twice as far. Let’s do this!
