ALUMNI PARTICIPATION
The number of alumni contributing to the College each year is a critical statistic for Alma College. Not only do the collective dollars from Alma's "loyal hearts" make a difference the campus can feel every day, but the percentage of alumni participation has a direct effect on corporate and foundation grant support.
The percentage is based on a single counting of alumni who have made a gift of any amount, to any fund-raising effort, within a given fiscal year (July 1 to June 30). Alma College is blessed with wonderful support from alumni who support a vision for Alma's future and the promise of successful lives for new generations of alumni.
