From its beginning in 1836, Emory & Henry College has depended upon charitable contributions. Tobias Smyth made the very first gift of $500 to begin a campaign to purchase the Crawford farmland upon which E&H is now located. This tradition of charitable support has held strong for nearly 170 years. Even today, each donation you make to the college, no matter what the size, helps provide educational opportunities for the leaders of tomorrow.

The E&H Fund Your contribution to the E&H FUND provides scholarships for Emory & Henry students who might otherwise be unable to pursue their educational aspirations. The College provides millions of dollars of financial aid each year from its own resources. The E&H Fund is an important part of this financial support. Alumni Participation The percentage of alumni who make a gift to E&H each year is an important indicator of their loyalty to the school and an affirmation of the college's mission. Many organizations consider alumni participation rates when ranking us or when they are considering their own support. For years, E&H has had an alumni participation rate that is among some of the best in the country. Gifts from alumni, at any level, count in this annual total and have a direct impact on the lives of E&H students. Click here for more about alumni participation rates. Giving Levels Emory & Henry has five levels of giving based upon cumulative gifts received during each fiscal year (July 1 - June 30).
In addition, the College recently established the Patrick Henry Society Associates membership level for younger alumni who are within 15 years of their graduation. These individuals may join the Patrick Henry Society at a reduced rate of $100 times the number of years since their graduation. To qualify for the new Patrick Henry Society Associates program, refer to the table below to see what your annual contribution should be:
Donor names and giving levels are listed annually in the President's Report and Honor Roll of Donors. IHEY -- I Help Every Year For more than 50 years, alumni and friends have supported athletic programs at Emory & Henry by joining IHEY (I Help Every Year). Contributions help teams purchase equipment and uniforms and pay for the expenses of travel to competitions. Because E&H is a member of Division III of the NCAA, no athletic scholarships are allowed. However, your gifts earmarked to IHEY or one of the 14 intercollegiate athletic teams can help young men and women become leaders on the field and court, as well as the classroom. Click here for more information on IHEY. Planned Giving By making a planned donation, you are providing for the future of the College. Planned gifts can take many forms, including bequests of small and large estates, a life income gift - which includes charitable gift annuities, deferred gift annuities, pooled income fund gifts, and charitable remainder trusts - gifts of life insurance, real estate, personal property, and appreciated securities.
