Philanthropy

The gathering in the Schar Center provided the opportunity for hundreds of Elon leaders and supporters to learn more about the campaign and its priorities. 

The seven-year fundraising campaign is the largest in the university’s history, with a central focus on expanding financial support for students.

Christine Gordon P'16, P'19 and her late husband, Sheldon, established a new endowed professorship of entrepreneurship.

This gift represents a historic investment in Alamance County students with high financial need. These scholarships are among the top priorities of the upcoming Elon LEADS Campaign, the largest fundraising campaign in the university’s history.

The generous commitment from Robert and Kim Graybill P’21, of Sparks, Maryland, will broaden access to Elon and create an enduring tribute to service in law enforcement and the military.

The gift from Trustee Dr. William N.P. Herbert ’68 and his wife, Marsha, of Charlottesville, Virginia, will support key priorities of the upcoming Elon LEADS Campaign, the largest fundraising campaign in the university’s history.

Proceeds from the gift will fund life-changing scholarships that serve students with high financial need in Elon’s Odyssey Program. These scholarships are among the top priorities of the upcoming Elon LEADS Campaign, the largest fundraising campaign in the university’s history.

Alumni, students, families, faculty, staff and friends gave 6,376 gifts and more than $2.3 million in honor of the day, propelling this year’s Elon Day celebration to new heights.

Trustee Shelly Skeens Hazel ’78 and her family advance university priorities to deepen scholarship funding and enhance Elon’s iconic campus.
