Alumni Giving

Philanthropy. Legacy. Opportunity. Paying it forward. These are a few of the many reasons our donors give to Champlain. Yet, the common denominator is the same: These gifts make a meaningful and lasting impact on the lives of our students, their families, and their communities for years to come.

I loved my time at Champlain and believe it offered me the best education possible. I believe in the future of Champlain and all it can and will be able to offer current and future students.

Why Do You Give to Champlain?

Please take a few minutes to tell us what inspires you to give to Champlain:

When I went to that first meeting in Skiff Hall, they ran all the numbers and told me what it would cost to transfer to Champlain. At the time, I was living on my own, and when they told me how much it would cost, I could only come up with some of the money, not all of it. They ran the financial aid numbers and said they could help fill the gap by giving me a Support-A-Student Scholarship. Getting that scholarship meant so much to me. I was so glad I chose to transfer to Champlain that I started donating to the Support-A-Student Scholarship Fund after I graduated. I¡¯ve given to Champlain ever since.
