[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I give $1000 to undergrad, DH gives nothing to his undergrad or graduate school - although I wish he would establish a giving relationship with his undergrad Ivy where his parents are active alums. I don't think it will necessarily get our kids in if they want to go and are on the bubble, but I find that once you give at the $1000 or higher level, you get invited to better networking events. [/quote] I should add, I got a scholarship of $18k a year for 4 years that made the difference between me attending that school or going to a state school that was academically good but too big / not a good social fit. I contribute back to the fund for the scholarship I received. DH who gives $0 had parents who paid full tuition for his degrees and went to schools with much wealthier donors / larger endowments than mine. [/quote]
