Why I Give to Hendrix College

Reverend William B. Smith '63
National Chair of the Alumni Loyalty Fund

When I was a student in junior high school, I began thinking about attending Hendrix College.  By the time that I reached high school I had made up my mind that this was the college I wanted to attend.  It was one of the best decisions of my life.  Hendrix afforded me the opportunity to have what many call the “Hendrix experience."

Many people were responsible for my Hendrix education.  There is no way that I could pay them back for what they did for me.   And as most have experienced, when you ask someone how to pay them back they often say, “Just do it for others along life’s way.”  Through my current giving to Hendrix College, I am helping to pay back those who made my Hendrix education a reality, ensuring that future generations can also share the “Hendrix experience.” 

Please join me in making your gift to the Alumni Loyalty Fund this year.  Your support helps Hendrix TODAY and ensures a bright future for the College.

Why does MY GIFT matter?
