Great News! Phonathon student callers raised $232,490 in fiscal year 2011!

23 student callers worked evenings and weekends to raise funds for scholarships, financial aid, academic programs and faculty support, and campus maintenance. The students reached 1,618 donors, a record for the College. In addition to raising funds, students provided SLC constituents with updates on the College and answered parent and alumni questions.

Congratulations to our callers and thank you to all our donors for making 2011 a successful year.

Student Phonathon

The Sarah Lawrence Phonathon connects alumnae/i and families to current students, allowing those who are not on campus to learn about what’s happening presently at SLC. From late summer to early spring, students phone alumnae/i and parents to thank them for previous donations, to talk about the College, share and compare Sarah Lawrence experiences, invite reuning class to Reunion weekend, and raise money for students and faculty through the Fund for Sarah Lawrence.

The student callers are eager to hear about the experiences of alumni. Great connections are made through Phonathon.
