Persons
considering a year-end donation to Lincoln College before the new
year begins now have an additional incentive to make that gift.
Lincoln College graduate and Board of Trustees member Jeffrey
Swallow, Ph.D., has pledged up to $100,000 in matching funds for
contributions made to the College’s LINCOLN Fund by Dec. 31.
“This is a chance to double your impact as the new year approaches.
We know that in December many people are looking for opportunities
to make a difference in the community. This offers an opportunity to
double the impact of your gift while making a year-end
contribution.” said Debbie Ackerman, Vice President for
Institutional Advancement at Lincoln College.
“Jeff Swallow has been a tremendous supporter of Lincoln College and
this generous gift is just the latest of many he has provided
Lincoln College,” Ackerman added. “We very much appreciate his
support, which has benefitted not just Lincoln College, but the
entire community as well.”
