Joe Klen ’97, our director of the Annual Fund, developed a theme for this year’s efforts of Opening Doors. Your annual fund gift this year, and every year, opens the doors of opportunity at Wabash and beyond. I’ll bet everyone of us has a story about someone making Wabash affordable/attainable for them. I do. I would never have graduated if someone wouldn’t have helped me…

This year the Annual Fund callers have been writing the names of all the donors through the phone room’s operation on a big, white door. As you can probably tell, there’s a pretty good list of alumni, family and friends on the door. As you probably can’t tell, there’s room for many, many more names.

Those of you who scan the bog probably have made a gift already. If you haven’t please do. There are 860-ish young men here and every one will benefit.

For all of you, do me one simple favor. Pick up the phone and call one or two classmates, fraternity brothers, teammates, etc. Ask them to open a door. Participation is the key. Together, we can open a lot of doors. Anyone can make a gift on line at https://www.wabash.edu/alumni/egift

Thanks a bunch!
