Why Give
You open the door. They change the world.
Your support opens the door to a Christ-centered education a little further. Currently, 99% of Calvin students receive financial aid. Your gift allows them to fully focus on their education and take advantage of everything Calvin has to offer.
When we say every gift counts, we mean it.
Gifts of any size
Small gifts add up to a big impact. Last year, donors raised $519,753 with gifts of $100 or less.
Alumni
53% of Calvin alumni have made a gift to Calvin at some point in their lifetime.
You make a difference
Participation matters. Alumni giving is one factor used in evaluating colleges and universities. A gift of any size increases our alumni participation rate, which can lead to more grants from foundations and corporations as well as higher national rankings.
Education matters
100% of Calvin’s faculty are committed Christians, which means your gift helps ensure students receive an education shaped by a distinctly Reformed faith.
“I just want to thank [the donors who] not only allowed me to stay at Calvin, but [also showed] me that no matter what struggles I’m going through, God will always continue to answer my prayers and surprise me in ways that will impact my faith.” Brenna Duffy ’21
