Seventy years ago, in the middle of the Great Depression, Janet Greig Post, Knox Class of 1894, asked her fellow alumni to consider Knox worthy of their support and to give to the fund to save Old Main. Alumni responded; Old Main was saved; and Knox’s Alumni Fund -- now known as the Knox Fund -- was created.
Today, your gifts to the Knox Fund support more than a single building. They support the entire Knox experience -- students and faculty, libraries and technology, classrooms and extracurriculars.
As you consider your year-end charitable contributions, we hope you find Knox worthy of your support. Your gift -- whatever the size -- makes Knox grow and makes it strong.
