Be part of something bigger. Become a FOREVER PIONEER.
Relationships matter to Pioneers. We create a collaborative culture deeply rooted in our responsibility to each other and to the world. As a Forever Pioneer, you sustain those connections through a recurring monthly gift that provides a reliable source of support Marietta College can count on throughout the year. Even better, 100% of every dollar helps to secure a bright future for today's students, while supporting the growth and sustainability of The Long Blue Line.
Select a specific designation or allow your donations to be used for the area(s) of greatest need – whatever you decide, you are making a difference.
Why a monthly gift?
It's SIMPLE. Enroll once, give monthly. Your gift is divided into manageable increments, and you choose the monthly gift amount.
It's CONVENIENT. Just like your video streaming accounts or subscription payments, set up your donation as an automatic gift via credit/debit card based on your budget. Not only are your gifts tax deductible, but you also have the opportunity to earn points for travel, gas, groceries, etc. Consider it your monthly "subscription" to supporting Marietta College students.
It's SUSTAINABLE. A monthly recurring donation allows you to divide your gift into manageable increments and extend the impact of your philanthropy across the entire year. This may allow you to make a President's Circle commitment of $1,835 or more.
It's SECURE. Your payment information is safe and secure. You can make a change to your gift at any time by contacting the Office of Advancement.
Sinclair Society
Consistent givers are the heart of Marietta College. Because of our most loyal donors who support year after year, we are able to move our mission forward and change the lives of our students. In recognition of this important commitment, we are pleased to honor those that consistently give by making them members of the Sinclair Society.
Lillian Spindler Sinclair '23
Lillian Spindler Sinclair, class of 1923 entered Marietta College in 1919 and worked in both the office of the president and the business office throughout her college years. She continued to work in the business office following graduation until 1926 when the college registrar’s position became available. Lillian worked as the MC registrar until her retirement in 1967. Even after her retirement, she served as the faculty historian until 1972. Throughout her tenure, she was a regular contributor to the college over the years, and at the time of her death in 2003 at the age of 101, she also left Marietta College in her estate. Support like Lillian's is so important because not only does it show devotion and commitment, but it truly does make a difference, especially when combined with other gifts. Like many of our alumni and friends, Lillian had a special place in her heart for Marietta and still supported regularly, with what she could.
In honor of her loyal support and dedication to Marietta, the Lillian Sinclair Society celebrates the college’s most dedicated donors who make consistent annual gifts. By regularly supporting, donors are automatically enrolled and recognized after giving for three consecutive fiscal years (July 1 - June 30). Annual gifts of any amount count towards membership. Sometimes giving can feel like just drops in a bucket, but when joined together, consistent gifts can and do add up to make a significant impact.
