“At no other college do students have the ability to do what they can at Hiram. It is because of the professors and the unique opportunities here that I am flourishing. By supporting Hiram through gifts to the Hiram Fund, scholarships, building projects or other special programs – you make all kinds of experiences possible for Hiram students like me.”

Since 1936, donors to the College’s annual fund have generated much-needed support for the College’s most important priorities: scholarships, faculty recruitment and programs, new library materials, campus renovations, and much, much more. Virtually no aspect of Hiram College has been left untouched by Hiram Fund support.

The best part is that all gifts, regardless of size, play an important role in allowing Hiram to become the best it can be. When taken together, gifts to the Hiram Fund from $25 to $25,000 comprise one of the Hiram’s most significant sources of support. And because Hiram Fund gifts are typically unrestricted, they can be directed to areas with the greatest need – and the greatest potential for impact.

Here's how your gift will have an impact on campus this year.

Not convinced that you can make a difference? You'd be surprised. Every gift counts!

Celebrating a reunion this year? Your gift will count towards your class goal. You can make your class look good while you help out Hiram too!
