Join Your Class in Making a Lasting Impact

Reunions are a time to celebrate the past, reconnect with old friends, and look forward to the future. They are also a perfect opportunity to give back to the institution that has played a significant role in your life. Giving back to LR is a powerful way to show gratitude for the education, opportunities, and friendships you’ve gained. Your contributions, no matter the designation, help to ensure future generations of Bears can enjoy the same transformative experiences that you did. 

All gifts made between June 1, 2024-May 31, 2026, will count toward your class reunion gift and during your reunion event, we will celebrate your class’s collective gifts to LR! 

To make your reunion gift, visit lr.edu/Igive2LRU. If you prefer to talk to a staff member about giving options, contact Stephanie Roberts, director of annual giving, at stephanie.roberts@lr.edu or 828.328.7998

Golden Bear Reunion

Golden Bears are LR alumni who have celebrated their 50th class reunions. A Golden Bear Reunion will be held every other year in an effort to help LR alumni stay connected to the campus and each other. Then next Golden Bear Reunion will be held in the spring of 2026.

Walk of Honor

Commemorate your milestone reunion year by purchasing a brick to be added on the Walk of Honor. With a gift of $250 to The Fund for Lenoir-Rhyne, you can personalize a brick that will be your connection to campus forever. Gifts made to the Walk of Honor will be celebrated in the sum total of the reunion class gift.
