BRING THE BEST

“Financial aid unlocks access to a life changing opportunity: a Lafayette College education. We are proud to know that our support has the power to, quite literally, change the entire trajectory of a deserving student's life, opening doors for those who have often faced a lifetime of financial roadblocks. More importantly, we are inspired to know that our gift is helping to bring some of the brightest and most aspirational students to Lafayette's campus, where they will undoubtedly contribute in countless ways to the Lafayette's robust community of learning.” - Meg ’84 and Tony ’84 Rodriguez

“My husband (Mike Garst) and I both came from families with limited financial resources which nonetheless valued education highly and nurtured our aspirations daily. Scholarships made everything possible. They provided money for tuition. But they did much, much more: offered validation, cultivated confidence, stoked the fires of intellect and ambition. They taught us gratitude. They helped us believe that strangers could be kind. They instilled a deep desire to succeed and to one day “pay back.” To be able to do so is a pleasure and an honor.” - Patricia Donahue, professor of English
