I love Oberlin!
Vice President for Communications Ben Jones ’96
But I also love uncovering new parts of the world, hosting dinner and folk singing parties, drinking good Armenian coffee on Saturday mornings, and traveling to see loved ones. As a young alumna, I need to budget to make any of the things I love happen. That’s why I’m so excited by
The Oberlin Trustee Challenge It’s simple: • Make a multi-year recurring gift of at least $25 each year • Oberlin’s Trustees donate $500 to the area of greatest need
The Oberlin Alumni Magazine (ISSN 0029-7518), founded in 1904, is published quarterly by Oberlin’s Office of Communications and distributed to alumni, parents, and friends of Oberlin College. EDITORIAL OFFICE
That’s all there is to it. By setting up a recurring gift that fits my nonprofit, returned-Peace Corps-volunteer, legal aid-sized budget, I can give back to the school I love. And this simple recurring gift gets a $500 boost. Plus, it’s totally paperless, so Oberlin won’t have to send me reminders or requests, which means my gift is also a win for the environment. So what are you waiting for? Take The Oberlin Trustee Challenge today. You’re going to love how easy it is!
Setting up a recurring gift is easy at our secure giving page: www.oberlin.edu/donate or call 800.693.3167.
