Illinois College Society

Empowering students through leadership giving

The Illinois College Society is a distinguished community of donors dedicated to transforming student lives and investing in the future of Illinois College. 

With an annual gift of $1,000 or more or lifetime giving of $100,000, you are invited to join the Society as an annual or lifetime member. As a member, you will play a pivotal role in providing essential resources that make an Illinois College education accessible and impactful.

Your support matters
Illinois College continues to grow and thrive, setting itself apart as one of the fastest-growing institutions of its kind in the Midwest. But in a competitive higher education landscape, it takes all of us to ensure IC remains strong for generations to come. Your investment in IC is an investment in the future.

While 99% of degree-seeking students receive financial aid, a significant gap remains. Your leadership gift helps bridge this gap, ensuring that deserving students can pursue their academic goals without undue financial burden.

Did you know? Your generous contributions can have a profound impact:

• $1,000: Supports a student's housing for nearly two months, providing a stable living environment conducive to academic success.
• $2,500: Funds nearly three weeks of tuition, bringing a student closer to their dream of earning a degree.
• $5,000: Covers more than one full month of tuition, easing the financial burden for a hardworking student.
• $10,000: Provides a substantial scholarship, significantly reducing a student's financial obligations and allowing them to focus on their studies.

✔ Exclusive invitations to leadership donor events and special College gatherings. 
✔ Recognition in the Quarterly Magazine Annual Impact Report and unique tokens of appreciation.
