Summary
The $33.5 Million Campaign for Meredith was unprecedented in scope and importance. In six short years, this effort sought to infuse a level of resources into the College's endowment that will transform the Meredith experience, and inspire a new generation of leaders. Increased annual giving helped us keep pace with ever-increasing operational costs and provide for yet unrealized opportunities for Meredith.

The current strength and future vitality of Meredith College rests in the hands of those who know and love the instituition and believe in the vision of her founding father, Thomas Meredith, who sought to create an educational institution of the highest order for women. The generosity and caring spirit of the College's trustees, alumnae, faculty, parents, and community and corporate friends will ensured that this commitment to excellence will continue to guide the College on a sure path.
