Thank you for participating in Emory Homecoming 2020 and the alumni reunions competition. Congratulations to the Class of 2000 (20th Reunion) for the highest participation rate! In the coming weeks, all donors in the reunions competition will receive an Emory pennant as a thank you. 

Because of your support, emergency financial assistance continues to be available to students, faculty, and staff through the Emory Together Fund. The requests have continued to come in from students.

“The pandemic has hit my family especially hard over the past year, and I hope, one day, to be able to give back to help others in my situation,” says an undergraduate student who requested anonymity. “I am truly thankful for your assistance.”

Along with the many students who have been supported through the Emory Together Fund, you have our gratitude.

Thank you for making Homecoming 2020 one we’ll never forget! From the Musical Showcase (with Broadway stars Sydney Harcourt and Lexi Lawson from Hamilton, the Indigo Girls, and Shadowboxers) to getting to know President Greg Fenves and honoring visionaries like John Lewis and Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Emory Homecoming 2020 will be one to remember. Did you miss any of the Homecoming programs? Access them here and catch up on all the fun.

You showed your Emory pride by contributing to our alumni reunions competition. Thanks to your support, emergency financial assistance will be available to students, faculty, and staff through the Emory Together Fund. Because Homecoming flew by, we decided to extend our reunions competition and offer new incentives. Here are the new details:

• The first 150 donors to our reunions site will receive an 8” by 18” Emory pennant
• Donors to the reunion campaign with the greatest progress toward their donor goal by November 30 will receive an Emory pennant and an Emory car decal sticker
• Emory swag will be mailed in early December

So, while you have already earned your Emory swag, we hope that you will spread the word and ask your classmates to get involved as well. Use the social media share buttons built into the campaign page for a quick and easy way to maximize your impact.

Again, thanks for leading the way for Emory!
