Help Meet the 1889 Scholarship Challenge!

Leave a legacy of support at MMA — From now until the end of Homecoming (Sept. 30-Oct. 2), MMA Board of Trustee Chris Gentry '88 will donate $100 for each new alumnus who joins the 1889 Scholarship Fund campaign — until we reach a total of 200 alumni signed as 1889 Scholarship supporters. That's nearly $13,000 in added impact! 


Thank you to Chris Gentry, MMA Class of 1988, for this challenge!

With a recurring gift of $18.89 each month (or $226.68 each year), 1889 Scholarship supporters provide ongoing gifts to support cadet education.
