MDS recognizes donors who make the college a philanthropic priority with annual gifts of $2,500 or more. Leadership-level giving from parents ensures that ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ students receive a best-in-class liberal arts experience with faculty who are leading experts in their fields. In honor of their generosity, MDS members receive special opportunities to network with other leadership donors as well as ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ leaders, both on campus and at regional gatherings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote has-text-align-center is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:100\"><em>&#8220;We are grateful that our children have had the opportunity to be part of a community that is committed not only to welcoming and supporting students, but also to positioning them for transformative leadership and success. Even as new momentum takes hold with the arrival of President Jenkins, the core of what makes ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ special remains. We believe in the values of ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½, which is why each year, we invest in the college with a gift to the ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ Parents Fund and why I choose to dedicate my time and energy as a volunteer. We are looking forward to watching from afar as new parents emerge to support this new chapter for ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<cite>Neen Koenigsbauer P&#8217;22,
