Make a Powerful Difference
An Elizabethtown College education equips students with the power of knowledge, has the power to inspire and create real impact, and instills the power of service. On March 19, 2024, join us for Power of One Day, a powerful philanthropic day when alumni, students, faculty, staff, friends, and families from around the world unite with the shared goal of giving today to transform tomorrow. Join us in making a powerful difference in the lives of current and future Etown students.
In honor of the official start of spring at 11:06 p.m. EDT, we have one final special incentive. Any online donor between now and 11:59 p.m. EDT will be entered into a drawing for a $50 gift certificate to the Elizabethtown College Store where you can get some amazing Etown apparel and gifts to add to your wardrobe in Blue Jay-style!
