November 19, 2024


MACOMB, IL - The 澳门六合彩历史记录 Foundation has launched a new recognition program, the Sherman Circle, celebrating the generosity and impact of donors who provide support of $1,000 annually.

The Sherman Circle honors Lawrence Y. Sherman, Sherman Hall鈥檚 namesake. Sherman served as a legislative representative from Macomb and was instrumental in passing the bill by the Illinois General Assembly on April 24, 1899, to establish Western Illinois Normal School.

Sherman Circle donors receive an exclusive lapel pin and invitations to Sherman Circle socials throughout the academic year and retain recognition through sustaining $1,000 in annual support.

Gifts may be unrestricted contributions to For the W: The Campaign for 澳门六合彩历史记录 or any other fund that is important to the donor, such as an academic area, organization, the Leatherneck Club, or the Performing Arts Society.

澳门六合彩历史记录 alumni who graduated in the last ten years will secure recognition in the Sherman Circle with a $500 annual gift. At GOLD Level (Graduates of the Last Decade) status, donors join the Sherman Circle, enjoying all benefits and privileges.
