Twos and sevens are heaven
Reunion 2012 class giving
Record breaker:
The class of ’62 won the Tinker Mountain Award for the class with the largest total gift to the Hollins Fund, with $610,085. This was also the largest reunion class gift ever recorded in Hollins’ history. Congratulations, class of 1962, and thank you.
Every gift counts:
The Catherine Orgill West ’51 Award for the class with the highest participation in giving to the Hollins Fund went to two classes: 1962, with 65 percent, and 1987, with 100 percent (this includes some classmates who made gifts on behalf of other members of ’87).
Young guns:
The class of ’02 won the Hollins Rock Award for the class among the ten most recent classes with the highest Hollins Fund participation, with gifts from 28 percent of the class.
