The Annual Fund is an essential element of Campaign for the Colleges. Just as new and renovated construction provides an environment for learning and endowment perpetuates the best teaching and scholarship, a strong annual fund underwrites the Colleges’ distinctive liberal arts education …for generations to come. In fact, no gifts to the Colleges have more immediate impact on today’s students than those made every year to the Annual Fund. To support the Annual Fund, please contact Kristen Einstein at (315) 781-3753, e-mail her at Einstein@hws.edu, or Make an Online Gift Today.

Students also contribute a collective Senior Gift during their final year at the Colleges.
