As I grow older, I am increasingly aware of the impact Haverford had, and has, on my life. I am profoundly grateful for that, and I want to give back to the best of my ability. I continue to enjoy engaging relationships with other Haverford alumni, and the ties continue to strengthen. Supporting Haverford is a small way I hope to give a similarly wonderful experience to future alumni.

David Werthheimer '77

Haverford was a pivotal experience in my life and helped to shape who I have become and what I have tried to do with my life. The young alums that I meet through college and work connections continue to embody what I believe Haverford is all about: Helping to stimulate women and men to lead lives of informed and passionate commitment to leaving the world a slightly better place than they found it.

Keith Schneider '78

I donate to honor the College and express my allegiance to an institution that produces great students and prepares them for a life of significance and participation in the world. As a nonprofit executive, I had the privilege of recruiting young Haverfordians to northern Michigan. I learned all over again how the College helps to inspire talented men and women to make a difference in their own lives and for the public good. My modest gift recognizes those very big accomplishments.

Kwame Asare '82

I received a full scholarship to attend Haverford, from Ghana. I got an excellent education that enabled me to enter graduate school and prepared me for a rewarding and fulfilling life as a citizen of the world, a parent and a professional. I will recommend it to anyone who is ready to accept the challenges and responsibilities of being a Haverfordian. I met my wife there, and I am proud that my daughter decided to enroll (Class of 2015). I donate at the 1833 Society level in appreciation of Haverford’s positive effect and impact that I have benefited from.

Charles Atkins, Jr. '90

The honor code helped me to always fight myself and the world to be a man of honor. I hope you will continue to teach the value of honor to future students.

Brad Sutton '94

Haverford was an ideal place for me to grow. The rigor of the curriculum helped me develop my mind and my confidence. The honor code and culture of open dialogue helped me become more self-aware and empathetic. Haverford was a rich journey for me, not just an educational experience. I support this special place because I can't imagine a better gift than four years at Haverford.

Jacob Goertz '96

My time at Haverford was academically and personally transformative. Not a day goes by that I don't value the education I received, both within my major and from other disciplines, and the life-long friends that I made. I give to Haverford to support its mission so that all the students can have the same wonderful experience provided by Haverford that I did.

Kristin Powell '87

Quite simply, Haverford changed my life. As a student from a blue collar family, I could not have afforded to go to Haverford had it not been for the need-blind admission policy and financial aid they provided. That was the first of many gifts that Haverford gave me. I am reflecting on that especially often now, as I prepare to teach for the first time at a small Jesuit University that also prides itself on community and academic integrity. I am glad to be giving back in any way I can.

Lisa Morenoff '93

I truly value the education that I received at Haverford, both in and outside of classes. My introduction to Quakerism's core values and practices influenced many of the contacts and experiences I have had in years since graduating. I also believe that a small liberal arts college was exactly right for me at that point in my life. I want to make sure that other students have the opportunity to participate in a similar community, with all of its richness.

Jessica Newshel '00

I give to Haverford because aside from obtaining a wonderful education, I also met my husband there. Together, we have a bright, curious and wonderful son who is about to turn four. He seems to have the same passion for learning as his parents.

Noah Skocilich '99

The more time goes by the more I realize what a tremendous gift the Haverford experience was to me personally and what a positive presence it is in the world. I give to Haverford to make that gift possible to other individuals and to amplify the 'brightening' presence of Haverford in the world.

Anna Kreiger '08

I care about supporting the future of Haverford!

Lewis Bauer '06

I don't have a huge amount of money to give this year, but as a high school special education teacher, I have constant occasion to recall what a fantastic opportunity it was to take part in Haverford's unique educational community. On any given day, the top priority for my students is to learn careful reflection, as well as concern and respect for others. These things may sound familiar as essential features of the Haverford way, and I've sought to make them essential features of my own classroom.

Laura Driscoll Taft '95

As a full-grown adult, I’ve gone out to eat with my parents and when the bill came tried to get them to take money to cover my share. But they wouldn’t take it. They said, "Put your money away. You'll buy dinner for your grown kids. That's how you'll pay me back." That, in part, is why I give to Haverford. The cost of my Haverford education was subsidized by generous alums before me. They won't take my money. So I'll chip in toward the next generation's bill.

James & Grace Betts P'93

We give because Haverford provided a superior education for our daughter. It was well grounded in academics [and] basic human values--respect for oneself and others, open-mindedness, concern about the environment, the importance of social and cultural institutions, and working for positive change, to name just a few. We also appreciated that as a Quaker institution, Haverford emphasized the importance of each person developing and using her or his voice to speak out about matters of concern.
