Class of 1966 Scholarship Fund

About

Our class has already achieved something extraordinary—establishing a permanent endowed scholarship fund that supports Northwestern students year after year. This fund ensures that talented students can enroll and thrive regardless of their financial backgrounds, helping the University maintain a dynamic undergraduate community. More than 60% of first‑year students receive financial aid, and our class’s generosity directly strengthens access and opportunity for current and future Wildcats.

Now that our class has reached the $100,000 endowment minimum, our fund is already generating annual support for deserving recipients, with 4 to 4.5% of earnings awarded each year. Additional gifts to the endowed fund continue to grow its impact, increasing the level of support available to students and expanding our class’s long-term legacy at Northwestern.

Every gift counts toward our Reunion class fundraising total. Donors at the leadership level ($1,000+) are also welcomed into the Northwestern University Leadership Circle (NULC) giving society. Most importantly, your support directly transforms the lives of students who will carry our class’s legacy forward.
