The President's Associates

The President’s Associates include those individuals and couples who give $1,000 or more to any part of the Westmont Annual Fund from July 1 to June 30. These gifts are made in one of three ways:

1. A one-time donation of cash or securities
2. A series of donations during the fiscal year
3. A cash contribution with a corporate matching gift totaling $1,000 or more. Check to see if your employer participates.

Share a closer relationship with the president and express your commitment to Westmont by joining the President’s Associates circle of donors.  President’s Associates receive correspondence from the president, emails regarding upcoming events and news alerts, and invitations to special events.

Your support directly enhances the education of Westmont students.

Automatic and Monthly Giving

You can establish automatic monthly, quarterly or annual giving to reach the President’s Associates giving level during a fiscal year (July 1 - June 30). For example, in July you could establish a monthly gift of $83.34 to reach a $1,000 by June 30.

If you are interested in making automatic gifts to qualify for the President’s Associates, please call (805) 565-6877 or email the president’s associates; let us help you to determine the monthly amount based on the number of months remaining in the fiscal year.

Young Alumni President’s Associates

Alumni who have graduated within the past five years qualify to be President’s Associates by donating $500 each year. For example, during the 2008-09 year, alumni who graduated in 2003 or later qualify for this status.

There is no need to apply for membership in this group; you will be automatically enrolled with your gift of $500 to the Westmont Annual Fund.

Westmont Annual Fund Scholars Program

Would you like to put a face on your gift to Westmont? You can. The Westmont Annual Fund Scholars Program connects you with the student who receives the scholarship you fund. A gift of $10,000 to the Westmont Annual Fund provides a named, one-year scholarship to a gifted student who requires financial assistance in order to attend Westmont.

 • Gifts for the Scholars Program count toward alumni class and reunion totals and fulfill the annual commitment required for membership in the President’s Associates;
• Corporate matching gifts may be included to reach the $10,000 total;
• Donors will not be able to request students based on their geographic area or their particular interests or talents;
• Westmont will select the scholars in the fall following the fiscal year in which the gift was made;
• Donors will be invited to meet their scholars at a reception on campus during the year.

For more information, please call (805) 565-6833 or presidentsassociates@westmont.edu.
