"I love to invest! Whether it is financial or personal, I love investing in Westminster College. I love investing my time with alumni, the current students, employees and faculty to gain insight on what is going on in and around campus. I learn of needs of the students and faculty. From the knowledge that I gain with that investment, I then love to make a financial investment and commitment to Westminster College. That investment helps in many ways, whether the investment goes toward scholarship funds, athletics, music or other fundraising activities that may be going on at the time. I want to see the current students continue to blossom into successful young adults in the work force. That investment can be made in many ways from an online donation to stock donation to cash donations.
The amounts can be small or large and can be specified to a personal favorite cause or wherever funds may be needed. All of the contributions, large or small, matter! It helps Westminster College in its funding obviously but also helps with the overall ranking of the college nationally in many ways. I strongly encourage all alumni to invest in Westminster College, no matter the size of the gift, whether it is a one time yearly donation, multiple donations or easily established recurring donations online. Please show support to Westminster College by investing in the college and the current and future students as you are financially able to give."
