“My husband, mo, and I give back to the school because Brianne had such an amazing four years. We want to thank the College of Charleston for giving her the foundation to go on to law school. We continue to support the College even years after she has graduated to give current students the same transformative opportunities she had.” — T r i s h St e i n e r , p a r e n t o f B r i a n n e ‘ 0 7

“We are especially grateful for the College of Charleston’s liberal arts approach to education. It exposes Morgan to diversity of thought. She enjoys having a practical major in accounting and a minor in anthropology. That way she is intellectually prepared and inspired at the same time. The College of Charleston gets our support because of the people who work there. I can tell they love this institution and they are dedicated to our children.” — J im Par sons, parent of Morgan ‘13

“Hank and I love the College of Charleston for our daughters because of its reputable and comprehensive education. We give to the College because the students feel the impact directly through scholarships, and indirectly through the superior professors our gifts support. I feel that as small as our donation may be, we do make a difference.” — V o n n i e St o n e b u r n e r , p a r e n t o f K a t h r y n ‘ 0 9 a n d M a d e l y n ‘ 1 4

The Parents’ Fund is a means to bridge the gap between tuition and the actual cost of education. Tuition only pays for one third of the expenses. Gifts to the Parents’ Fund support the programs and people critical to student achievement. Gifts from parents account for a substantial part of giving to all areas of the College of Charleston. Philanthropic support from parents serves as a powerful endorsement of the College, and many parents honor the College’s lifelong influence by continuing to give after their students have graduated. Every gift, no matter the amount, makes a difference! Declare your impact. Make a gift to the Parents’ Fund today.
