Fundraising
Q. What is a class report?
A. A class report is a document that is provided to each reunion committee for fundraising
purposes. It details
their classmates past giving to the school, current contact information and ask amount for their
reunion gift. We use
this document to determine each classmate’s likelihood of giving and define a fundraising and
participation goal for each class based on those ratings.

What size gift should I ask my classmates to make?
For most classes, our office has assigned an “ask amount” for each classmate and this

please contact Hilary Rouse at 508-786-6289 to
adjust the amount.
