The Class Giving Pages are class-specific fundraising websites that function as solicitation tools.  Each page contains testimonials from volunteers, as well as photos, videos, and messages.  There is also a link to the HCF Online Giving Form.

Using the Class Giving Pages is a softer and more dynamic way to engage and solicit your classmates via email. Sharing your Class Giving Page will give your classmates a direct link to the page, where they can read testimonials from volunteers in their class about why they support Harvard and then make a decision regarding their own gift. You can find more information about the Class Giving Pages here.

The Class Giving Pages can be found at http://collegefund.harvard.edu. If you would like to contribute to your Class Giving Page, send your photo and testimonial to your Class Officer or to hcf@harvard.edu.
