The Acorn Society is Elon University's elite student giving community for the Classes of 2007, 2008 and 2009. While donations in any amount to each Class Project are welcomed, membership in the Acorn Society is open to students who make a minimum contribution- $10 for freshmen, $15 for sophomores, and $20 for juniors.  Through their contributions each year, Acorn Society members strengthen the university by raising money for the class projects to help classmates in need.

You are invited to join this special community of students who believe in the power of giving back to their alma mater and to sustaining the opportunities that make Elon like no other school in the nation.

Mission Statement:
Many students do not realize that their tuition pays for less than seventy-five percent of their educational costs at Elon. Without the donations of many alumni, trustees, faculty and staff who give regularly to Elon, tuition would be much higher. We would also be without many programs, scholarships, and facilities, such as the Belk Library, Rhodes Stadium, the Isabella Cannon Leadership Program, the Watson Scholarship Program, and Alumni Gym. It is the mission of the Acorn Society to make sure the tradition of giving back to our institution remains strong for many classes to come.
