Seniors: Donate now to the Senior Gift Campaign!
Leave a little of yourself behind on north side
Seniors, we know you’re on tight budgets, but
your extra change will give students who follow in your footsteps the
same fabulous experience you’ve had. Now’s the time to
donate to the Senior Class Gift Campaign.
A gift of any size will help. If you give $25, you receive a free Berkeley
Engineering license plate frame. (You can’t buy it anywhere else!)
Donate online at www.coe.berkeley.edu/giving/seniorgift or
in person at 201 McLaughlin Hall. The Senior Class Gift Committee will
be tabling
in the breezeway between Etcheverry and Soda Halls April 11 and 12
from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. and during Engineering Week on the Campanile
Esplanade, April 17 through 20, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Besides receiving a cool license plate, donors will have their names
published on the College website’s donor honor roll and in the
College’s Commencement program and Annual Report. Donors will
also receive an invitation to hobnob with Chancellor Birgeneau at his
home in May.
Where does your gift go? The College directs it to the Berkeley Engineering
Annual Fund, where it will be used to support a variety of programs
and services, such as engineering student scholarships, undergraduate
research, the Center for Entrepreneurship and Technology, student-directed
projects (Concrete Canoe, CalSol, etc.), engineering student societies
and much more.
This year’s campaign has already raised more than $2,300 from
90 seniors, but to beat the Class of 2006’s record of 43 percent
participation and $8,733 raised, we need more than 350 senior donations.
If our goal is met, alum Bob Sanderson (M.S.’66 Ph.D.’70
IEOR) will make a matching gift to double the class total, up to $15,000.
Commencement is fast approaching, so make your donation now!
For more information, e-mail Jennifer Roseman at jenniferr@berkeley.edu or call 643-8564.
