Reunion Giving
Alumnae are invited to Meredith every year for Alumnae Reunion Weekend. Classes celebrate an official reunion every five years. During the weekend of May 15th, 2009 classes that end with a four or a nine returned to campus to renew friendships and reconnect with Meredith College. Many alumnae make special gifts to the College during their reunion year to help their class win the Reunion Class Challenge. The class that gives the largest amount in gifts to the College is invited to a reception with President Maureen Hartford at the Massey House. They also have their name engraved in a special plaque that hangs in the Mae Grimmer Alumnae House.
This year the class of 1954 won the challenge by giving more than $196,436 with a 38.1% participation rate. We would like to thank all classes that participated in the challenge this year. We enjoyed having you back on campus!
