Annual Giving Campaigns  

GinkGO! All In for Cedar Crest is CCC’s annual Day of Giving — 24 hours to unite, give back, and ensure every current and future student experiences the transformative education that has shaped generations of leaders.   

Your GinkGO! gift directly impacts The Cedar Crest Fund, providing immediate, unrestricted support where it’s needed most — from cutting-edge technology and research opportunities to financial assistance that ensures no deserving student is held back by circumstance.  

Whether it’s your first gift or the latest in a long tradition of giving, every contribution helps Cedar Crest students grow, thrive, and soar. Be part of the legacy this November.  

Whether you graduated 50 years ago or five years ago, there is no better way to commemorate your milestone reunion than to pay it forward to the next generation of Cedar Crest students. All gifts, both restricted and unrestricted, made during the current fiscal year (July 1 through Reunion Weekend) count toward the Reunion Class Gift Campaign for your class year.  

Your reunion gift also contributes to your class’s chance to win one of two prestigious awards presented during Reunion Weekend:  

  • Class of 1940 Award: Given to the reunion class with the highest percentage of participation  
  • Class of 1936 Award: Given to the reunion class with the highest total contribution  

Returning to campus to celebrate your time at Cedar Crest and making a special gift in honor of Reunion Weekend is a meaningful way to mark this milestone and give back to the students following in your footsteps.  

The Decade Challenge is a three-day fundraising event uniting Cedar Crest alumnae/i across generations in friendly competition, all to enhance our students’ futures through collective generosity. Every gift to The Cedar Crest Fund strengthens your decade’s legacy and directly enhances the student experience. Classes compete to surpass their previous giving, vying for the championship title within their decade and overall.  

Two ways to win:  

  • Highest dollar amount raised  
  • Highest percentage toward your class’s individual goal  

Winning classes will have their impact permanently commemorated with an engraved paver on Cedar Crest’s campus — a lasting symbol of your class’s commitment to future generations.
