Class Fundraising

Dear Classmates,

Last year many of you (71%) supported the Dartmouth College Fund and helped our Class reach new heights. We hope that you will continue to support our class and the college in its efforts again this year as we attempt to reach Class goals of 70% participation and $700K in donations.

To put a gift on a credit card, please call the Dartmouth College Fund (1-800-228-1769), or go to Dartmouth’s website, https://www.dartmouthcollegefund.org/ALUM_give.htm . Payment by check should be made payable to Dartmouth College Fund and mailed to:

Dartmouth College Fund
c/o Gift Recording Office
6066 Development Office
Hanover, NH 03755-3555

For a stock transfer, call the College Investment Office toll-free at 877-650-6956.

Thanks,

Jim Feuille (Head Agent)
Peggy Epstein Tanner (Participation Co-Chair & Major Gifts)
Dave Philhower (Participation Chair)
