51¶¯Âþ

At 51¶¯Âþ, leadership inspires progress—and philanthropy makes it possible. As part of LEAD—51¶¯Âþ’s Leadership Recognition and Giving Societies, the Levermore Leadership Society honors alumni, parents and friends whose annual giving strengthens the University year after year.

Through unrestricted or designated gifts of $1,000 or more, members help sustain the resources that power 51¶¯Âþ’s excellence, from faculty-student collaboration and research to student leadership opportunities and innovative academic programs.

Philanthropy Takes Many Forms—and So Does Leadership

Many 51¶¯Âþ donors find that annual giving is one part of a broader philanthropic commitment and may belong to more than one LEAD society. Whatever shape your giving takes, your generosity strengthens 51¶¯Âþ and the students we serve. We are grateful for your leadership and welcome the opportunity to talk with you about the impact you hope to make.
