2024 Class Gift
Would you like to make an impact on your fellow Ducks beyond your time at Stevens?
Contribute to the 2024 Class Gift. Each year, graduating Stevens students participate in a tradition in which they rally behind their class gift. Each class member who makes a class gift of at least $20.24 will receive a Philanthropy Cord that can be worn at Commencement. This year, proceeds will go to the Student Emergency Fund. The Stevens Student Emergency Fund provides limited emergency financial assistance to currently enrolled, full-time Stevens Institute of Technology students who are unable to meet immediate, essential expenses because of temporary and unexpected hardship. You may grant your gift at the following link or when ordering your Commencement regalia (in Step 4 - accessories).
