Subject: Celebrate our XXth Reunion
Hello <Name>,
Mark your calendars: our Kenyon XX Reunion will be a celebration of historic proportions on May 24-26, 2024, when we will also celebrate Kenyon’s Bicentennial!
We had a great time at our XXth reunion with over XX of us attending, and raising nearly $XX,000! It would be great if we could do even better for our XXth, but we need your help.
The XXXX Reunion Committee has challenged the class to raise $XX,XXXX and to reach XX% participation. We hope you’re planning to return to campus to celebrate next May. We also hope you will consider making a stretch gift in honor of these momentous occasions.
Your gift to the Kenyon Annual Fund during our reunion year will support today’s Kenyon students and show your confidence in the value of a Kenyon education while providing support for the College’s future.
Please join me as a Kenyon Fund supporter this year by making a gift at whatever level is personally meaningful to you in honor of our reunion and 200 years of Kenyon excellence. Here’s how you can give: Visit gift.kenyon.edu to give through Kenyon’s secure online giving form or mail a check payable to the Kenyon Fund to: Kenyon College Advancement, 105 Chase Avenue Gambier, OH 43022-9623.
See you on the Hill in May!
Cheers,
