Annual Fund for Fort Lewis College
The Annual Fund for Fort Lewis College is focused on raising unrestricted funds for the College. Of course, all gifts designated for a specific use will be honored and used only as designated, but at the same time, we emphasize the College’s great need for unrestricted support.
Contributions given to support the unrestricted needs of the College will be used for a number of different purposes. The use of unrestricted funding is established annually by the College administration based on input from across campus. The uses will change from year-to-year, but you can be assured that unrestricted giving provides the margin that separates "good" from "great" in higher education.
Annual needs include:
Membership at the Aspen level (or a higher level gift) recognizes your contribution to The Annual Fund for Fort Lewis College. Your name will be included in an Honor Roll of Donors to be published by the Fort Lewis College Foundation. More importantly, you will know that you are helping Fort Lewis College achieve an extra measure of support that can no longer be counted on in state funding.
While many alumni and friends support Fort Lewis College with endowments and major, planned gifts, The Annual Fund for Fort Lewis College calls upon all alumni and friends to play a role — as small or as large as you feel moved to play — in providing a significant difference represented by annual, unrestricted gift support. The Annual Fund is a 3 phase direct mail program, with no telephone program currently in place.
Fort Lewis College has established named levels as one way of saying "thank you" to the individuals who make the Annual Fund a success. The Annual Fund Recognition
Named Levels are:
-
Aspen: gifts up to $99
-
Oak: gifts from $100 to $499
-
Cottonwood: gifts from $500 to $999
