All-Campus Appeal has begun
The Fredonia College Foundation invites faculty and staff to join in the success of “Nurturing Innovation: The Campaign for Fredonia” by participating in the All-Campus Appeal.
Each year members of the campus community show their support for their favorite programs, departments or existing scholarships through generous donations. Support not only demonstrates a commitment to the university but also influences outside support through the foundation.
Employees will soon receive appeal materials in their campus mail on how to contribute, either through a one-time or continuing payroll deduction, or cash contribution. Faculty and staff are encouraged to make a payroll deduction online. Those who prefer to utilize the hard copy payroll deduction form are asked to contact Jenn Michalek at michalek@fredonia.edu
The All-Campus Appeal is coordinated with other fundraising activities of the Fredonia College Foundation, which reaches out to alumni, parents, businesses, foundations and emeriti faculty and staff, as well as the community at large, to support the university.
As members of this community of higher learning, faculty and staff understand the struggle for many students, including those who come from backgrounds that make the dream of college difficult, if not nearly impossible. Fulfilling that dream requires help from faculty and staff through the All-Campus Appeal.

The Fredonia College Foundation is a private, non-profit corporation that exists solely to support the university. Gifts to the foundation provide the necessary funds for scholarships and other initiatives such as library resources, equipment, exhibitions and performances that state resources can no longer support. The foundation was established in 1964 during the presidency of Oscar A. Lanford to encourage and accept private gifts and endowments from individuals and corporations in order to support Fredonia students, faculty and programs.
