While we hope that donors will make unrestricted gifts to the annual fund, you may also choose to direct your gift for a specific purpose. The director of capital gifts works with potential donors who have the means to make significant gifts to support the Agnes Scott
endowment,
academic programs, building construction and capital needs.
Facilities
Agnes Scott recently completed a $100 million campus expansion which included the renovation of Letitia Pate Evans Dining Hall, expansion and renovation of the James Ross McCain Library, and the new Mary Brown Bullock Science Center on the new South Quad.
Naming opportunities are still available in several facilities on campus. To inquire about naming opportunities, please contact Betsy Bilbro Huey '97, director of capital gifts, at 404 471-5345 or
bhuey@agnesscott.edu.
The Julia Thompson Smith Chapel, funded entirely through private gifts, is under construction and scheduled for completion in spring 2008. The chapel is the spiritual center of our campus and affirms the importance of faith in our community of higher learning.
Alumnae House
Our current facilities project is the renovation of the
Anna I. Young Alumnae House, which has had no improvements or renovations in 40 years. A lead gift from the estate of an alumna nine years ago, including property to be sold, constitutes nearly $1 million toward the goal. While plans have been drafted, no construction will begin until all funds have been raised.
The Anna I. Alumnae House offers convenient, affordable accommodations for important college visitors and guests, including interview candidates, prospective students, current and future parents, trustees, alumnae, visiting artists, performers and lecturers. It extends the residential community experience to our guests, an important component in attracting prospective students and their families as well as new faculty and staff members.
To make a gift to the Anna I. Young Alumnae House or for more information contact Betsy Huey at 404 471-5345 or
