Senior Class Gift Committee

Each year the senior class of Mercyhurst fund raises money to give a gift to the school- typically it is something that the seniors believe current and future Lakers could truly benefit from. This year, I was asked to be the chair of this committee and we are already working very hard to come up with awesome gift proposals.
Currently, a survey is being sent to all senior students, the survey will allow them to vote from several ideas that our committee has come up with as well as offer up ideas of their own. Last year's class raised over $15,000 and I would LOVE to be able to do that same, if not better (sorry class of 2011 hehe). Our committee has chosen to take on the motto of "Living the Dream" which is based off of a presentation we saw during our welcome week our freshman year.

Some ideas that the committee currently has for gifts is: an outdoor fire pit, a campus game room and an outdoor patio. Our committee came up with ideas and next week we will tally up the survey results to come up with the top three options chosen by our classmates.
Once the top three options are chosen, our committee members will present gift proposals to our president, Dr. Gamble and our vice president for advancement, Dr. Livingston.
We will also be planning fundraisers so that our classmates have opportunities to make a gift towards the fund. Check out our group on Facebook called: Mercyhurst College Senior Class Gift 2012 to see what we're up to!

Coming up this weekend: HOMECOMING HOORAY! Be on the lookout for lots of pictures!
Until next time- Go Lakers, Beat Gannon!
