REPORT ON PHILANTHROPY

Last semester I studied abroad in Switzerland. It was a great experience and it was my first time out of the country. Learning about a whole other culture opened my mind to new ways of thinking. I was also able to make connections with the international students there whom I will stay in touch with going forward for work or business related endeavors.”

“Last academic year I was accepted into the Honors Program at Babson, as well as the Summer Honors Session in London program. I was able to travel abroad without financially compromising myself and my family all thanks to Babson’s programming and support. I had my first flight on a plane, my first experience in another culture, and an amazing professional experience working as an intern at Educated Change in London. I am working towards obtaining an internship for the coming summer as a Product Manager in Boston. I am confident that the experiences I’ve had through Babson will guide me in achieving this new step in my career.”

I am very grateful to the Class of ’49 for their Scholarship Fund, as it has allowed me to continue my studies at Babson with less financial worries. I feel very fortunate to be able to attend this school and to receive so much support. It helps me feel like I truly belong at Babson and deserve to take advantage of this school’s amazing resources!”
