How to Get Involved
Make a Gift
Annual Fund gifts are at the heart of Lead & Serve, sustaining the daily excellence that defines US, while other gifts will support endowment endeavors or capital projects. Tax-wise gift strategies may allow you to maximize the impact of your charitable giving while achieving your philanthropic goals. These gifts may include gifts of stocks and bonds, real estate, and retirement assets. Contact Associate Director of Advancement & Campaign Director Lorie Hollington Smith by email or at (216) 292-2142 to learn more.
Whatever way you will participate over the next three years, please know that All Gifts Count & Every Gift Matters!
Connect with the Community
As the Lead & Serve campaign continues, we’ll gather with alumni and friends across the country to celebrate our shared vision. Watch your inbox and visit the alumni portal for updates. If you'd like to invite US to your city, reach out to our Director of Alumni Engagment Marissa Rapsik by email or at (216) 425-1281.
Volunteer your Time
More than 150 alumni, parents, and friends volunteer each year to support the Annual Fund and campaign events. Whether you have a few hours to give or want to play a larger role, your energy and enthusiasm help keep US strong.
