Vanderbilt is an integral part of Nashville. I give to Vanderbilt to support my local community.
The only way that I was able to attend Vanderbilt was with the assistance of scholarships. Vanderbilt continues to help students from diverse backgrounds afford a college education. I give because I feel it is important to support students financially.
What we learned at Vanderbilt was the impetus for us to become dedicated community volunteers and advocates for those in need of assistance in reaching their educational goals.
Supporting the university financially is one way I demonstrate my gratitude to the place that prepared me for life beyond its boundaries.
