40 for 40

40 Ways to Support Cornell for our 40th Anniversary

Many of you reading this are loyal financial supporters of our Alma Mater. Unfortunately, there are even more of you who are not.  When we ask classmates why they don’t write a check to Cornell (particularly in our 40th anniversary year) we usually get one of two answers;  a) “I forgot”, or b) “Cornell doesn’t need my money”.

Our response to the former is, consider yourself reminded  (and thank you). With respect to the latter, Cornell in fact does need your money, and your money, in anyamount, can make a difference to any one of thousands of programs, teams, organizations, students, etc. that make up Cornell.

Below is a list of just 40 of these places where Cornell needs your support.

We dare you to look at this list and not find at least one place that has made a difference in your life or the life of someone you know, and are willing to support with $40 (for our 40th anniversary).

Go towww.giving.cornell.edu/give and be sure to clearly designate the fund name in the “other designation” box.

And, if you can’t find something on the list that works for you, send us an email  (jhf25@cornell.edu) with your particular interest and we will search the list of 25,000 places at Cornell that might do the trick. (Or you can just make a gift to Cornell and rest assured it will be put to very good use.)

We dare you…and we thank you!
