Student Philanthropy at Cornell

Senior Gift Campaign

The Senior Gift Campaign is managed by student volunteers with support from the Office of Annual Giving.  The success of the Senior Gift Campaign relies on committed and motivated Committee members who can reach out to and connect with every member of their class to continue Cornell's tradition of philanthropy.
