The Tucker Foundation provides Dartmouth students with the knowledge and
skills that they need to develop strong moral commitments to the welfare of
others, as well as the leadership opportunities that will allow them to
effectively contribute to society through the quality of their values and
character. An investment in the Tucker Foundation is an investment in the
future of human society: Dartmouth students are some of the brightest minds in
the world, and at Tucker Foundation we are inspiring the minds and hearts that
will lead us to a brighter tomorrow, and putting our ideals into action and
making a difference in the lives of all those we touch. During this past year,
the work of the Tucker Foundation led to Dartmouth being ranked No. 1 in Peace
Corps recruitment, Dartmouth being listed in the Princeton Review College Guide
of top Colleges with a Conscience, and Dartmouth students providing more than
40,000 hours of service. This year we have organized and led efforts to provide
relief to disaster victims, partnered with other centers on campus to
facilitate constructive dialogue and programming around the topic of religion
and politics, and have begun a strategic planning process. Contributions from
all of our Friends are vitally important as we pursue our mission of educating
Dartmouth students to think and act as ethical leaders and responsible citizens
in the global community through service, character development, and spiritual
exploration. In our annual appeal letter this year, we set a fundraising goal
of $200,000. To date we have raised approximately $39,500 (19.8% of our
goal). If you have not yet made a gift to Tucker this year, please
consider supporting us.
