Bennington is needed in this world more than ever.
Throughout the month of December all gifts made to Bennington will be DOUBLED thanks to the generous support of Nick Stephens '77, Chair of the Board of Trustees.
We are facing some of the most unfavorable circumstances in our history. More than 30 colleges have shut their doors in the past year, and Bennington faces similar challenges. Rising inflation has driven up costs, particularly for student scholarships and essential services including academic, mental health, and social support. Other challenges are brought on by our unique method of educating—graduate-style advising and Field Work Term, especially—and by our beautiful, expansive, and historic campus, which requires tremendous upkeep.
As hard as we are working to strengthen the financial sustainability of the College, we cannot sustain Bennington without you. Be a Bennington Champion and double your impact this December. Thank you. 💚
Thank you to our incredible Bennington community who supported the college in December. Contributions from 445 donors helped us raise more than $1.1 million, including matching funds from Nick Stephens '77. Every gift makes a meaningful difference, and we are truly grateful for your commitment to Bennington.
