Friends of Ithaca College

The Friends Make a World of Difference

The Friends of Ithaca College once again showed their dedication to Ithaca College by contributing $1.2 million over the six and a half years of the Campaign for Ithaca College: Making a World of Difference. These dedicated local leaders and businesspeople have been an active force in strengthening the bond between Ithaca College and the local community for the past 50 years.

Through their membership fees, the Friends of Ithaca College support a scholarship fund for local students. To date, the Friends have helped more than 300 students from the local area receive an IC education.
