HCF Associates Program
Dear Alumni, Alumnae, Friends, and Parents,
Thank you for your interest in the Associates Program, the cornerstone of the Harvard College Fund. This program raises current-use monies needed each year to maintain Harvard's standards of excellence. Supporters of the Associates program are a distinguished group of contributors who provide consistent annual leadership for the College—an alumni community that, year after year, helps steer Harvard through each new challenge and helps to strengthen undergraduate education.
Each year, Associates-level donors are listed in the Harvard College Fund Annual Report. Associates also enjoy various special events and communications throughout the year.
The Associates Program has five leadership giving levels. Donors are encouraged to enroll at one of these levels annually, and you may also wish to get involved in the program by volunteering as a committee member. We do hope you will join us as an Associates donor or renew your commitment to the program. Your contribution is critically important to Harvard's mission.
Sincerely,
Kenneth Bartels '73 and Elena Hahn Kiam '85
