Ring the Bell for Bennett!

Women. Learn. Lead.

It’s more than a tagline—it’s our purpose and our power.

Today is Day of Giving: The Centennial Edition!

Invest in a Bold Future, Powered by a Century of Strength.

Today we come together to #RingtheBellforBennett and raise funds in support of Bennett College and the next generation of Bennett Belles. Join us on this special Day of Giving: The Centennial Edition as we honor our legacy and celebrate our reorganization as a women's college in 1926.

Now, more than ever, it is important to invest in Bennett College through your tax-deductible contribution. Your participation – at any level - makes an immediate impact. Your gift ensures that Bennett College students experience the power of the sisterhood both inside and outside the classroom. Your support builds legacies.

Belles who graduated in a year ending in 1 or 6 ...this is your Reunion Year! All gifts you make this year - including supporting Day of Giving - will count towards your Reunion Class contribution.

All Belles are invited to join us on campus, May 14-17 for Centennial Alumnae Weekend.
