Many alumni classes choose to make a gift to KIS by setting special giving goals or choosing a project to fund in honor of their reunion. I would like to give those classes with upcoming reunions some ideas to consider if you chose to make a gift to KIS. Please do not feel constrained by these ideas if class members are interested in supporting a different project. We would be happy to consider your ideas as well.Examples of recent Class Gifts include:
Scudder Scholarship Fund, Class of '56
Drama Endowment Fund, Class of '58
KIS Archives, Class of '61
