Young Alumni Leadership Giving Circle

Martha Berry Society

You're building your future—and still shaping someone else's. The Young Alumni Leadership Giving Circle, part of the Martha Berry Society, recognizes graduates within 10 years of leaving Berry who are stepping up to support the next generation.

This isn't about how much you can give. It's about being part of something bigger—creating opportunity and opening doors like the ones that were opened for you. The Young Alumni Leadership Giving Circle honors young alumni whose giving is equivalent to that of a $1,000 annual donor during Berry's fiscal year (July 1 to June 30).

There are five giving levels, each based on age and stage of life. Depending on the level you qualify for and the month in which you establish your recurring gift, that amount could be as low as the price of lunch or dinner out. That's all it takes to make an impact.

Start your gift your way — one-time, quarterly, or monthly — and help shape a future Viking’s story.

 

Let's make it easy:
Set it. Forget it. And know you're making a difference all year long — however you choose to give.
