Sponsor A Senior for the Class of 2023!

The Office of Student Engagement is coordinating our annual Sponsor a Senior program, which allows high-need seniors to attend Senior Week events that they otherwise would not be able to participate in due to financial restraints.

As a reminder, Senior Week is a week-long program in May which offers the graduating class opportunities to strengthen friendships, reflect on their years together at Fairfield, and to celebrate their accomplishments as they prepare for the future ahead. This program is organized by the Office of Student Engagement and this year we are excited to announce that Senior Week 2023 will consist of (7) unique events. These events will take place both on and off campus and the total package will cost students $315.

In previous years, through several generous contributions, we were able to solicit over $28,000, allowing more than 150 students to attend their Senior Week events! Our goal this year is to help as many students as we can but we need your help! We invite you and/or your department to assist a senior in attending these events!

If you are interested in sponsoring a senior(s), the link to do so can be found here. You may contribute to the general Sponsor a Senior fund to award any high-need senior(s) seeking assistance (this list is growing every day!) or you may sponsor a specific senior(s) of your choice. Either of these sponsorships may be done anonymously, if you wish.

The deadline for all Sponsor a Senior submissions is Monday, May 1. For more information about Senior Week, and about sponsoring a senior, please visit our website: www.fairfield.edu/seniorweek. If you have any questions, you may reach out to Danielle Parisi, Assistant Director in Student Engagement, at ext. 2641 or dparisi@fairfield.edu.
