Several Ursinus College alumni plan to give back to their alma mater through donations to support current and future students. Reasons mentioned include wanting future students to have the same positive experiences they had, helping students explore their passions through opportunities, and continuing to support programs like financial aid, study abroad, and growing academic departments.

because I believe in the goals and
mission of the college. I've made a

a home worth investing in.

I will give back because of our amazing
ability to allow many of our students
study abroad I want to give every
student a chance.
8. Alexandra Peters

English and Dance Double Major
I will give back to UC because I want the
dance department to continue growing so
that future dancers of Ursinus College have
access to opportunities we’re currently only
dreaming of having. It’s necessary to give
back because the college has given so
much to us and if we want that to continue
and expand for future students, we need to
make it happen.
