Westmont Magazine A Strong First Half

After setting a new record during the 1997-98 fiscal year, The Westmont Fund is well on its way to another successful finish. After six months, generous donors have given $936,825 to the Fund, which equals nearly 70 percent of the goal.

Last year, alumni, parents, friends, foundations, and corporations gave nearly $1.7 million to The Westmont Fund, 51 percent above the goal. Assuming that giving continues at the same rate during the rest of the year, the Fund will post another record-setting year. These gifts help close the gap between the cost of a Westmont education and what students pay in tuition.
