Senior Class Gift


The current generation of college students is known for its philanthropic spirit, from collecting cell phones for the needy to blood drives to tutoring at-risk kids. The mission of the Class of 2009 Campaign is to heighten students' awareness of the Tech Loyalty Fund prior to their graduation.  The Senior Class Gift Campaigns encourage students to reflect on what the generosity of others has meant to them.  The hope is that today's Tech students will continue the new tradition of giving at so that tomorrow's Tech students can enjoy the same benefits they had.

Committee members are selected at the end of 2nd semester for service in the following year.  They work throughout the academic year developing an educational campaign on philanthropy and the
Tech Loyalty Fund. 

Student volunteers help to:
     -   Design a marketing plan to advertise the drive to their peers, focusing on flyers, e-mails, phone calls
                and, most importantly, personal contacts
     -    Recruit a larger committee of campaigners to solicit pledges during a week held in April

 

The Class of 2009 Campaign fosters friendly competition as the senior class works to beat the previous graduating class' dollar amount and level of participation.  We rely on prizes donated by local businesses for an end of campaign raffle, which is held at an end-of-year event co-sponsored by the Alumni Association and  the Tech Loyalty Fund.

Students involved with the Class of 2009 committee have
the opportunity to:
    - Develop leadership skills
    - Contribute to class spirit and school pride
    - Increase the value of their Tech degree
    - Meet a diverse group of fellow students
