GIVING
at a Glance
Wheelock alumni and friends
continue to generously support the Annual
Fund. Contributions to the Annual Fund — given
in small amounts or large, by new or longtime
donors — make it possible for Wheelock to offer
more scholarships to more talented and driven
students who want to attend the College.
The Endowment
The market value of Wheelock’s endowment
was $53.4 million at June 30, 2015. Thanks to
growth over the past several years, from gifts
as well as investment performance, the level of
annual support to the College has never been
greater. Last year, the endowment provided
in excess of $2.3 million, primarily for student
financial aid.

Annual Fund
In FY 2015, Wheelock alumni, faculty, staff, and
friends contributed more than $1.1 million to
the Annual Fund. Wheelock is fortunate and
very grateful to have such a wide community of
supporters who have increased contributions
of current-use unrestricted dollars and gifts for
student scholarships. Generous giving to the
Annual Fund affirms the value that donors place
on the College’s mission and their confidence
in the education Wheelock provides so that
its graduates can make the extraordinary
contributions to society that they do.
