Why We Give

Your Story. Your Reason to Give.

Art and Gail (Nelson) Jones, Class of '74

"We enrolled in 1972 as Equine Studies majors and our first date was Winter Weekend, February 1973. We were married in 1975. As our 40th anniversary approached this year, we felt the need to do something meaningful together - not just another nice dinner out, or a party, but something that would have a positive impact somewhere. We had talked for several years about a planned gift at Delhi, and it seemed like the right time."

Bob Roth '74 and Joyce (Johnson) Roth '73

"Aside from my wonderful wife and our beautiful daughter, there are two additional things in my life of which I am exceptionally proud: What I have accomplished professionally as a licensed engineer and company president, and seeing what a great college SUNY Delhi has become over the past 40 years."

Robert Davids '63 and Eleanor Davids

"The education I received at Delhi provided me with the tools to launch a successful career in railroad engineering, maintenance and safety. My wife Eleanor and I had our wills rewritten a few years ago and I decided that a conditional bequest to the College Fund at Delhi would be appropriate. Maybe that gift would allow another student to receive an affordable education."
