Young Alumni Founder's Associates

Dear St. Marker:

You were told that you would always be a Lion, but what does that mean? Like much of your student experience on campus, your life as a young alum is up to you. Similarly, becoming involved in St. Mark’s alumni life is just as exciting and rewarding as joining student groups that first month on campus.

Today we would like to invite you to partner with us, to join our elite group of Founder’s Associates, and to sustain the St. Mark’s experience by making an Annual Fund gift.

The Founder’s Associates need you, your input, your support, and your ideas - your leadership - to help ensure the School continues its commitment to helping students lead lives of consequence. You know firsthand the needs of the current campus community, and you represent the best of what St. Mark’s has to offer. When you join the Founder’s Associates, you gain a seat at a table of like-minded St. Markers who care deeply about the future of your School and your community.

It takes a collective effort from the entire alumni community to keep St. Mark’s at the top. Your gift bolsters the School’s world-class reputation (not to mention the value of your diploma), supports initiatives that defined your St. Mark’s experience, and creates opportunities for generations to come.

Thank you for making St. Mark's a priority and considering our invitation to help ensure that the future of St. Mark's is one of continued excellence.

Age Quod Agis,

Sue Gagne

Director of the Annual Fund
