Why Give?

Walk the halls of our buildings and you'll hear about individualized paths of learning, close collaboration between a student and a faculty member, and about personal and educational transformations. (Click here to meet some shining examples.) It's all part of a stimulating atmosphere that cultivates intellectual curiosity and stamina; that opens minds to endless perspectives; that fosters a love of learning. Our university is, in a word, unique.

Of all the reasons to give to Lawrence, the gratification of knowing you're making it possible for young adults to benefit from our invigorating experience - a chance to give students an education that prepares them in innovative ways for a challenging and changing world - is perhaps foremost among them. Some give to ensure that Lawrence continues to rank among the top universities in the country. Others give because they're proud.

Whatever your reason for giving, we hope that you do. We're eager to have you share in the excitement of all that Lawrence is, all it does for its students and all that it stands to become.
