<p>A planned gift allowed Kelli Palmer '98 to give to Elon, a place that has had<br />
"the single greatest impact" on this generation of her family.</p>
Tom Grathwohl P’11 ’13 remembers exactly what set Elon apart when he and his wife, Darcy, helped their son, David Edge ’11, make his college decision.
Elon’s commitment to create a vibrant, inclusive campus caught the attention of parents Eric and Lori Sklut. The couple made a $250,000 gift through the Levine-Sklut Family Foundation to endow the Lori and Eric Sklut Emerging Scholar in Jewish Studies. This endowment will significantly expand and enrich Elon’s Jewish Studies program, which will benefit all students.
Jessie Thurecht Hook ’46 is one of many donors who are helping to secure Elon’s future by placing the university in their wills. By including Elon in her estate, Jessie can continue to live comfortably and help her alma mater in the future.
You’ll have to excuse Ike Credle '83 for his enthusiasm for Elon. He can’t help himself. Ike supports Elon each year because he values his education and wants to preserve what he loved most about his alma mater.
