Spelman, It’s Time to Come Home!
For nearly 145 years, Spelman has been the home of brilliance, sisterhood, and purpose for women of African descent. This Homecoming, we celebrate that legacy and together, we carry it boldly into the future.
From now through October 22, we're calling on the entire Spelman community, including alumnae, students, parents, faculty, staff, and friends, to join us in honoring 145: Our Mission, Their Future. Alumnae and students are invited to rally with their sisters through the Dorm Wars competition. Faculty, staff, parents, and friends are encouraged to celebrate the heart of our community by supporting the mission that shapes generations.
When you give to Spelman Strong, or any area you are passionate about, you become part of the joy and pride of Homecoming while fueling the strength of Spelman for generations to come.
Every gift supports our mission. Every donor shapes Spelman’s future.
