Wow, what a March! While we fell a little short of our overall goal, we saw an outpouring of support during the month of March and we are proud of the results:
1,216 Smithies came together and donated more than $450,000!
That’s 406 more donors than last March--an impressive increase. Thanks to your support, Smith will receive more than $89,000 in sponsored challenge and matching gift funds.
Thank you to all who participated in All 4 One-- as a donor, as an Advocate or as a matching gift/challenge sponsor. Your support is truly inspiring.
SMITH COLLEGE IS LEADING WOMEN’S EDUCATION.
IT’S TIME TO PROVE IT.
This March, we urge you to participate in All 4 One, Smith’s quest to increase alumnae giving participation by 4 percentage points. All 4 One is not about dollars and cents. It’s about us coming together to become one of the most engaged groups of alumnae donors.
To reach this goal, we need 1,577 alumnae who have not given this year to do so over the course of 31 days in March. That’s 51 new donors per day. We’re asking you to be 1 of them.
WHY SHOULD YOU GIVE?
The reason is simple: there’s power in numbers. The alumnae giving participation rate directly affects Smith’s national rankings and, in turn, each of us.
BE 1 OF 51
Please make your donation today.
THANK YOU!
From now until March 31, we will be counting all donors in the GOLD (Graduate Of the Last Decade) classes and offering a prize for the top three classes.
The GOLD classes with the most donors in the month of March will have the following amounts added to their class fundraising totals.
1st place: $1,000
2nd place: $750
3rd place: $500

A big thank you to everyone who participated in All 4 One 2018!
While the campaign is now over, the final total won't be known for a few days. Smith Fund staff still has to tally up offline gifts from the last few days of the challenge and that can take a day or so. Check back mid-week for the official All 4 One campaign total!
