Joe Klen ’97<\/span><\/b>, our director of the Annual Fund, developed a theme for this year’s efforts of Opening Doors<\/b>. 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…<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"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.<\/span><\/p>\n

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.<\/span><\/p>\n

For all of you, do me one simple favor.<\/span><\/b> 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<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Thanks a bunch!<\/span><\/p>\n
