Happy Holidays, Hatters!

From the Office of Alumni and Parent Engagement, we wish you and yours the very best for a healthy and happy holiday season. During this time of year, when we pause and reflect, we feel truly fortunate to have an outstanding group of individuals who continue to support our University and its students. 
Thank you to the many proud Hatters who have volunteered time, talents, and financial gifts to make this unprecedented year an exceptional one for Stetson University.

Hatter Highlight: Julie Bressett Tingley '03

Julie Bressett Tingley '03 wants to help children ages 3 to 10 to ‘do good’, and she’s doing just that with the launch of Wee Macree, a give-back collective with a mission to support the causes that support our kids. Julie launched Wee Macree on World Children’s Day in November, and hopes that others in the Stetson community will join her in the simple realization that small acts, when compounded together, can change the world, and that kids caring for kids is the way forward. Learn more about Julie’s incredible journey and how you can support Wee Macree here
Liam Wolfe Bio

Double Your Impact Today! 

"Just as I was immersing myself into the Stetson community through Greek life, student organizations and the classroom, I found out my mother had lost her job. It was devastating, and I became overwhelmed with uncertainty. 
Fortunately, I was offered a scholarship dedicated to helping students in positions like mine, where something completely unexpected put my education at risk. That’s the reason I’m still at Stetson – because people are supporting me in ways I can only repay right now by striving toward excellence in the classroom and community." - Liam Wolfe, '22
Please make your donation today to give students, just like Liam, the Stetson experience they all dream about.
When you give to any fund today, your gift will be matched dollar for dollar up to $25,000 by the Jessie Ball-duPont Fund to support Hatters across campus and beyond. All gifts under $500 from alumni, parents and friends will be counted toward the match.
