Have fun. Make an impact. Choose your reward.
Help strengthen the University of Rochester and Eastman School of Music alumni networks, and ensure all future students have the support and resources they need, by attending one or more events and donating any amount to any fund before June 30.
Those who successfully complete the Perks Program will receive their choice of curated swag – exclusive to young alumni!
What’s the swag?
You get to choose! Everyone who completes the program will receive access to a private webstore in July to select their gift.
Attention previous Perks Program finishers! You can receive exclusive access to multiple tiers of gift options by completing the Perks Program consecutively year after year.
How do I know how much of the program I’ve completed this year?
View the current 2023-2024 Perks Program progress report below. It showcases who has completed the program or has one more step (and which one) to complete. Not sure what tier of gift options you qualify for this year? This is also included!
What events can I attend to complete that portion of the program?
All virtual and in-person events are listed on our events page. Check back often to see what’s coming up!
Where can I give that will have the most impact?
There are several immediate need initiatives like the Student Emergency Fund, Food Pantry, and Eastman Fund which we encourage you to consider. However, through the Perks Program, you can give ANY AMOUNT to ANY AREA of the University, Eastman School of Music, or Medical Center. Any gift, big or small, has a positive impact on current students, beloved faculty, and the departments and programs that you love. It is not about the dollar amount but about showing your support.
When and how can I choose my gift after I completed the program?
Everyone who completes the program will be emailed a link to a private webstore in July to select a special gift, which will be shipped directly to you. If you have questions in the meantime, please contact us at alumni@rochester.edu.
