The 2025 Class Gift Committee members are Brenton Pham, Carlos Lichty, Anastasia deFerbrache and Sarah Miller
What is the Senior Class Gift?
It’s our chance to pay it forward. The Senior Class Gift is a meaningful tradition, honoring our “Culture for Service” motto, that goes back generations — a way for graduating seniors to show gratitude, give back to Goshen College, and support future Maple Leafs.
By making a gift (of any size!) you’re stepping into the next chapter of your GC journey as a proud alum — joining thousands who give to the GC Fund each year, including current and retired professors & staff, and fellow alumni.
Our gifts help grow opportunities for future students and strengthen the legacy we are building together. It’s a powerful way to say: “I believe in GC, and I’m part of something bigger.”
Where does my money go?
The Class of 2025 is coming together to support the Goshen College Fund — an annual fund which is a powerful resource that directly benefits 100% of GC students, including you.
Your gift supports scholarships, residence & commuter life, athletics, clubs, music, SST, student activities, and so much more. This fund touches nearly every part of the student experience — and now it’s our turn to give back.
As graduating seniors, we have a unique opportunity — and responsibility — to step up, give what we can, and invest in the future of GC. By participating, you’re joining a long line of Maple Leafs who’ve said, “Someone did it for me and now it’s my turn to pay it forward.”
Let’s beat the record!
The Class of 2023 holds the recent record with 34 gifts — but we’re aiming higher. Our goal is 40 senior donors to set a new record and show what the Class of 2025 is made of!
Bonus: All donors will be entered to win a Connect Goshen Day 2025 Purple Squirrel T-shirt — five winners will be selected at random!
How do I get a class of 2025 T-Shirt and/or sticker?
For a minimum donation of $40, class-members can choose to receive a donor gift. This varies each year, but for the class of 2025 you can choose one of two t-shirts, each designed by your peers!
Anyone giving a gift ($10 minimum) will receive a one-of-a-kind graduating squirrel sticker!
