Cornell's Annual Giving Day was held on Thursday, March 14, 2024. *Note: you can make donations at any time, even if you miss Giving Day* What is it? It is an annual day when alumni, parents, friends, and Big Red worldwide come together to make a difference for Cornell, and so too for the world. Please look at the website for Cornell Giving Day 2024: https://givingday.cornell.edu to find answers to your questions and much more information about Giving Day 2024. It covered a full 24 hours from 12:00 a.m. until 11:59 p.m., "Ithaca Time". There are descriptions of challenges and updates on donations to all manner of areas of the University. Please keep in mind that the Legendary Class of 1970 has three established gifts to Cornell: we have two endowments: The Class of 1970 Scholarship Fund (which has been awarding scholarships to Cornell undergrads annually for many years) and The Spirit of the Class of 1970 Fund (used to support and sustain: 1. Touchdown the Big Red Bear; 2. The Cornell Cheerleading Squad; and 3. The Annual Senior Athlete Banquet). Our third fund is The Class of 1970 Art Fund (which has been used to purchase or assist in obtaining several works of art for Cornell's Johnson Museum of Art). Please use the following info when making a donation to any (or all!) of these three funds. The Class of 1970 Scholarship Endowment Fund : #112322 The Class of 1970 Art Fund: #0000553 The Spirit of the Class of 1970 Endowment Fund: #0010033
16MAR2021 - A message from our President Sally Anne Levine that was recently mailed to all of our class Dear '70 Classmate, If this past year has taught us anything, it is the value of our communities and our connections to one another. Whether you have remained in close touch with our '70 classmates over the years or recently tuned in to a virtual gathering for the first time, Cornell remains a community ready to welcome you with open arms. You are an important member of our Cornell family. Staying active in our class is vital to maintaining our shared community. The Class of '70 plans activities, events, and special projects that keep us connected to each other and to Cornell. Nearly everything we plan as a classï¿½from online events to on-campus traditionsï¿½is made possible by class members' paying class dues, which we hope you will do at this time. Because the Cornell Magazine is ceasing publication, the dues amount has been reduced. The enclosed dues form (Pay Dues Here) also provides an opportunity for you to support our Class of 1970 Scholarship and the Class of 1970 Spirit Fund. By contributing to these funds, you will be making a philanthropic gift to Cornell in addition to paying your class dues. For fiscal year 2021, our scholarship is projected to provide $5,717 in undergraduate support. The recipient for academic year 2020-2021 is a young woman in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences. Our Spirit Fund contributes approximately $4,000 each year to Touchdown the Bear ï¿½ you may have noticed that Touchdown always sports a "70" jersey ï¿½ as well as to the cheerleaders and the outstanding senior athletes banquet. We hope you will choose to stay involved by becoming a 2021-2022 class dues payer and to support current Cornell students and assure the ongoing spirit of Cornell by making an additional gift to one or both of our class funds. Your contributions help make our continued connections possible. Thank you! Sally Anne Levine '70, Class President P.S. As always, dues payers will receive exclusive discounts via the Big Red Marketplace. P.P.S. Paying class dues is not considered the same as making an outright gift to Cornell. Class dues support class specific programs while other gifts to Cornell support the broader initiatives of Cornell. Similar to your other philanthropic giving, class dues are tax-deductible.
