alumni campaign

I’m writing to ask you to make a donation to CEE’s 2019-20 Alumni Annual Fund.  As a student at the Center’s Research Science Institute (RSI) in 1985, I personally experienced how much impact CEE’s programs can have for young people -- I consider RSI to be a defining experience in my life and I still have meaningful relationships with many people I met there.

The 2019-2020 Alumni Annual Fund will both help fund CEE’s 2020 STEM education programs and build its endowment for future years.  In 2006 the Center established an endowment to build toward a perpetual funding source for RSI, the USA Biolympaid (USABO), and its other programs designed to increase STEM opportunities for young students, such as the Teacher Enrichment Program (TEP). 

A new aspect of this year’s drive is that we are asking you to consider signing up for recurring donations at whatever level is comfortable for you, whether that’s $10 per month, $50 per month, or more.  Recurring donations grow the endowment faster and will get RSI and USABO on self-sustaining funding sooner.  (Recurring gifts can also be made quarterly or annually if desired.)   

A group of alumni have banded together and pledged $50,000 to match the first 12 months of all recurring donations that are made between today and November 30.  If you sign up today, your donation will have double the impact!

Whether you can give on a recurring basis or on a one-time basis, your donation is greatly appreciated and will help provide future students with the same amazing experience you had.    Please join me in supporting the Center and give today at www.cee.org/donate.
