A big William Jewell thank you to the 108
individuals who have joined the Circle
of 1849 giving society so far this
year!
Named for the year of the College's founding,
the Circle of 1849 is the College's
premiere annual giving society. Any donor
to the Jewell Fund is eligible for membership
in the Circle of 1849 by providing
a gift (or series of gifts) of $1,000 or
more during a given fiscal year (July 1
through June 30). Last year, the inaugural
year for the Circle of 1849, a total
of 134 donors became first-time members.
As a thank you to all first-time members,
a brick will be installed in your name on
the Quad. And did you know that this year,
all first-time members of the Circle
of 1849 will have their gifts matched
up to $1,000? Through the Shumaker
Challenge, Dianne (Jeter)
Shumaker '66 will provide up to a $1,000
match for all new gifts to the Circle
of 1849 this year.
