Why I Give Spotlight
“With tough economic times and low funding from the state, we felt it was imperative to give to the university. We like that we can specify where and what we want our gift to be used for (in our case we give to the soccer club) or it can be put in a general fund that helps all students.
” — Jim and Abby Whiteford P'10

Did you visit us at Orientation and enter our drawing? One lucky family has been selected to win a gift card to help buy textbooks at the University Bookstore. Congratulations to Debra and Jeffrey M. of Newaygo, MI. With two students enrolled at GVSU this fall, we're sure they can use the prize!
Maybe you also visited us in Kirkhof Center during move-in like Don and Sharon R. of Caledonia, MI who won a family four pack of tickets to the GVSU vs Tiffin football game on October 3rd! Don and Sharon stopped and visited the Family Assocation table during move-in, updated us with their current email addresses, and registered to win tickets to the football game on Family Weekend. Congratulations!
