President’s Circle

In recognition of the College’s leadership and loyalty donors, who give $1,500 or more annually, Earlham’s President’s Circle provides unique events and communications from the office of the President. Generosity at this level and this consistency is transformational for all students on their journeys.

President’s Circle members account for two-thirds of all gifts received by the Earlham Fund year-by-year, which supports the totality of the College on its mission to change student lives for good as well as supporting Earlham’s immediate and ongoing needs.

The necessary good of your generosity

A more personal connection

At the core of Earlham is a dedication to developing impactful and meaningful relationships, including with our most generous supporters. That’s why each President’s Circle member has a personal liaison dedicated to fostering your relationship with Earlham.

Your liaison will be available for all your questions and will meet with you one-on-one to discuss your interests in the College. They will reach out to you twice a year with an update about Earlham or from College leadership.

Connect with your President’s Circle Liaison.

You can provide an Annual Scholarship with a gift of $2,500 or more.

To find success, students need a network of support that encourages them to pursue their educational goals. You can be a critical part of that network with a gift of $2,500 or more toward an annual scholarship and receive information on how your annual scholarship transformed the lives of Earlham students.
