Program Mission

Philanthropy is at the heart of Spelman College — it’s a defining part of our community and a powerful tradition that uplifts and empowers. Through giving, we honor Spelman’s legacy of excellence, service, and sisterhood, ensuring it thrives for generations to come.

Our Student Philanthropy Program invites you to become part of this meaningful tradition. By participating, you help create lasting change that benefits future Spelman women who will leave their mark on the world.

As a Spelman student, you are both a beneficiary of this legacy and a vital contributor to its future. Whether raising awareness, volunteering your time, or making a gift, your involvement strengthens Spelman’s mission and ensures that future Spelmanites experience the same transformative education that has empowered you.

Ways to Get Involved:

  • Spread Awareness: Inspire your peers to embrace Spelman’s culture of giving and make a lasting impact.
  • Volunteer with Annual Giving: Support fundraising efforts that directly impact the student experience.
  • Make a Gift: Every contribution counts and supports Spelman’s continued success.
  • Join the Student Philanthropy Council: Become a leader in promoting philanthropy on campus (details coming soon).

Senior Legacy Campaign

As you prepare to graduate and join Spelman's powerful alumnae network, reflect on the transformative journey that has shaped you. The sisterhood you’ve embraced, the knowledge you’ve gained, and the legacy of leadership and excellence you now carry are all part of what makes you a Spelman woman.

Now, you can honor that legacy through the 2025 Senior Legacy Campaign from March 26 to June 30, 2025. By giving $20.25 to Spelman Strong, you celebrate your class, uphold Spelman’s rich tradition of sisterhood and service, and demonstrate your commitment to future generations of Spelmanites.

In gratitude for your gift, you’ll receive a Spelman blue charmed tassel—a meaningful keepsake to wear proudly during Founders Day, Class Day, and Baccalaureate ceremonies. This special symbol represents your dedication to Spelman’s mission and values.

Make your gift today to secure your tassel! Check your Spelman.edu email for campaign details, tassel pick-up instructions, and updates. Your Spelman journey doesn’t end at graduation—it’s a lifelong commitment to excellence. Support the Senior Legacy Campaign today and continue building the future of Spelman.
