Donor Recognition
Giving to Ģý directly supports the success of our students, faculty, and campus community, ensuring that Ģý continues to fulfill its mission of cultivating a diverse community of learners who lead lives of meaning and purpose.
Donor Recognition
Our donor recognition societies and giving clubs celebrate the alumni, parents, faculty, staff, and friends whose generosity makes that mission possible. Explore the groups below to learn how Ģý honors our supporters. If you’re not yet part of one of these communities and would like to be, we’d love to talk with you about how to get involved.
Established in 1972, the Ģý Presidents’ Society celebrates those whose leadership – past, present, and future – propels Ģý forward. This distinguished circle recognizes alumni and friends who make annual gifts of $1,000 or more to the Ģý Fund, demonstrating their belief in the College’s mission and dedication to seeing it carried out. Presidents’ Society members play a vital role in sustaining Dz’s excellence, ensuring transformative, innovative learning experiences for today’s students and for generations to come. With each giving level, members gain greater access to the College through exclusive opportunities to connect, engage, and help shape Dz’s bright future. Visit the Presidents’ Society Page to learn more and to view a list of current members.
In addition to the Presidents’ Society, Ģý celebrates other exclusive giving clubs that recognize donors who meet specific criteria each fiscal year—including recent alumni, recurring donors, and faculty and staff who generously support the College with financial gifts. Explore the Giving Clubs page to see where your impact can grow, or reach out to the Office of College Advancement to learn how you can become a part of one of these meaningful communities.
Planned gifts play a powerful role in shaping Dz’s future. By including Ģý in their estate plans, donors help ensure that future generations of students benefit from the same transformative education and meaningful experiences they value. These thoughtful contributions – whether through a bequest, trust, retirement account, or other planned gift –leave a lasting legacy and help sustain Dz’s mission for years to come. To learn more about how you can make a lasting impact through planned giving and to see a list of current Matthew Ģý Society members, we invite you to visit the Matthew Ģý Society page or connect with a member of our College Advancement team.
Endowed Funds & Scholarships
Endowed gifts play a powerful role in shaping Dz’s future. By creating a permanent source of funding for scholarships, academic programs, faculty support, and more, donors who establish endowed funds ensure their values and vision live on through generations of Ģý students. Endowed gifts reflect a deep commitment to sustaining the excellence and impact of a Ģý education – now and always.
