MAKE A DIFFERENCE. EVERY GIFT. EVERY YEAR. Susan Marmo ‘96 gives to the Loyalty Fund because she wants to give back to an institution that gave so much to her. "When I was at Guilford, the professors took the time to notice my interests and skills. Jeff Jeske saw that I liked to write, and encouraged me to get a job as a writing tutor. John and Carol Stoneburner noticed that I enjoyed analysis and arranged for me to help with a research symposium. The professors saw things in me that I hadn’t yet seen in myself, and went above and beyond to help me develop and grow.” You can show your appreciation to Guilford faculty and staff by paying it forward like Susan. Make a gift to a Guilford College Annual Fund today at giving.guilford. edu/makeagift or by using the envelope enclosed in this magazine. Office of Advancement

“I give to the Loyalty Fund to let the professors at Guilford know that I appreciate them. I hope my gift will help other students have the same experience.” SUSAN MARMO ´96
