Sustain Your Giving, Sustain Haverford
Sustainable Giving allows you to automate your giving to Haverford’s Annual Fund or Parent Fund on a monthly basis, for up to 36 months at a time. There are several advantages to giving in this way:
- You can have a greater impact on Haverford with a larger gift paid in smaller increments.
- You can “set it and forget it” until we remind you it’s time to renew.
- The steady stream of support provides a more stable foundation for ongoing and new programs that benefit our students and campus.
- You’re helping the College save money on regular solicitations, which, while not expensive, do add up over time.
- With fewer solicitations, we can reduce paper use and conserve the energy consumption associated with printing and mail delivery.
