The Penny Wilson ’45 Challenge for Campus Renewal
This fiscal year, longtime trustee and campus renewal donor Penny Wilson ’45 has issued a challenge: She will make a gift of $1 million to the College when Bennington raises $2 million in gifts for the restoration and rejuvenation of campus, and if 2,500 donors give to The Bennington Fund before June 30, 2012. Penny aims to accomplish two goals consistent with her passion to preserve the beauty and integrity of the College’s physical spaces: to provide Bennington with $3 million in funds for renewal and renovation priorities this fiscal year, and to engage a new generation of alumni donors in support of campus projects.
This campaign is not about building something new; it is about renewing, reviving, and restoring what already exists. It is about preserving the deep and meaningful history embedded in this campus. It is about maintaining Bennington’s character and ensuring it remains a campus that is as vibrant as its people—a place where inspiration is born, innovative work takes place, and history is made.
Now, more than ever, we have the collective power to preserve our history, one that is marked by every person who lived, worked, and studied here. Please make your gift today.
