The Palmer Society

Society Challenge X marks the 10th year of the Society Alumni Participation Challenge which will end June 30. Larger cash prizes of $1,500 and $750, along with new incentives are up for grabs.

With the Spring semester abruptly moved online, society actives experienced the disruption of not just their academic year, they also lost opportunities to participate in a number of important society traditions and activities. There is no better time than now for Palmer alumnae to unite in support of the actives.

You can help the Palmers win the Society Challenge X for a THIRD time by making a gift to the Palmer Society Endowed Scholarship, the Whittier Fund, or any fund designation you are passionate about. With this year being the eve of the 100th anniversary of the Palmer Society, it would be wonderful for the actives to return in the Fall with extra cash in their actives’ fund made possible by Palmer alumnae who rallied on their behalf.

A word about the Palmer Society Endowed Scholarship: Thanks to a generous gift from Barbara (Ondrasik) Groce '57 and the ongoing support of Palmer alumnae, this scholarship benefits Palmer actives exclusively and as an endowment, will do so in perpetuity.

The more than $120,000 reflected above represents the collective giving of Palmer alumnae in the current fiscal year (as of July 1, 2019) to a number of funding priorities at Whittier College.

Give by June 30 to be counted for the Palmers in Society Challenge X.
