Annual Giving
Through unrestricted annual giving - the Annual Fund - alumni and friends serve to provide the operating support that keeps the College moving ahead day to day. Do not underestimate the power of your participation or the impact of every gift on the students of today and tomorrow. Your contribution to the Annual Fund helps us improve year after year. There are also restricted funds to which you may designate your gift and endowed funds in which only a portion of each year's interest and appreciation is spent while the principal grows in perpetuity. Cleveland-Marshall welcomes gifts of all types and we will work with you and your financial advisors to maximize the tax benefits for you and the value of your gift to the College.
How is my gift used?
- 100% of your gift supports the area of your choice.
- There is no administrative fee attached to any gift to the College.
- For example, if you give $500 for scholarship aid, the entire gift of $500 will benefit a needy student.
