Your Class of 2013 Reunion Campaign
A message to the Class of 2013
Every five years, our class has the opportunity to reconnect, reflect on and celebrate our time at Stanford. Some found our calling here, others found partners, and all of us made lifelong friends. We’ve signed on as co-chairs for our Class of 2013 reunion campaign, and are asking you to join the campaign committee alongside us.
The 10th Reunion Campaign focuses on two goals:
Creating fun and memorable opportunities for class connection.
Raising support to ensure current students have the same opportunities we had.
Throughout the year, this page will be updated to reflect giving opportunities, events and highlights from the campaign. We hope you’ll join us in coming together to celebrate and make an impact!
Warmly,
Jillian Balassone, Parth Bhakta, Hendrick Chan, John Dodini, Claire Fisher, Ernestine Fu, Tiffany Hsieh, Rex Kirshner, George Malkin, and Jonathan York

Give back during your reunion year
So much of our student experience was supported by alumni before us, and now it’s our chance to pay it forward.
Whether you give through The Stanford Fund or to another part of Stanford, you can choose to support an area that was important to your experience or that you are passionate about.
All gifts made through December 31, 2023, will count towards our class reunion campaign and help our class make a collective impact.
Donate online
Make a secure gift online today. Support Stanford students in ways that are meaningful for you.
Mail your gift
Make checks payable to “The Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior University” or “Stanford University” and mail to:
Stanford University
P.O. Box 20466
Stanford, CA 94309-0466
Please include a note telling us how you’d like your gift to be used (for example, “gift designated for The Stanford Fund”).
Make a pledge
Reunion commitments often take the form of multiyear pledges, typically over a five-year period. The entire amount of the pledge counts toward your class’ reunion giving total.
Our progress
On behalf of Stanford and the class giving team we gratefully acknowledge alumni who have made a gift or pledge to Stanford in honor of reunion. These numbers reflect campaign commitments made between January 1, 2023 and August 31, 2023 (including some prior gifts made in honor of reunion). Our remaining honor roll deadline is December 31. Final results will be posted in February 2024.

Support high-priority initiatives through impact funds
When you give through The Stanford Fund, you support many aspects of the undergraduate experience with a single gift. Impact funds offer targeted opportunities to support university initiatives that align with your specific interests.
During your reunion campaign, you can designate your gifts to any or all of the funds listed here. Giving through an impact fund comes with the same benefits of giving through The Stanford Fund, including recognition as a Leadership Circle or President's Fund-level donor.
Financial aid
Contribute to a more equitable future in Stanford education by giving toward need-based financial aid. Nearly half of all undergrads receive financial aid each year.
Community centers
Promote justice, belonging, and equity on campus with a gift toward the Centers for Equity, Community, and Leadership.
Student life
Sustain the campus-wide events and programming that make the Stanford experience fulfilling, unique, and fun.
Academics
Support all three undergraduate schools to expand class offerings and provide additional academic support for students.
Mental health
Help increase appointment capacity at CAPS, expand virtual and telephone visits, and improve community outreach.
Opportunity Fund
Help provide flexible grants for undergraduate students to cover unexpected expenses like emergency travel or registration fees for a conference.
Student groups
Support the student-led organizations that help undergraduates develop new skills, build connections, and pursue their passions.
All of the above!
Support all these important initiatives with one gift through The Stanford Fund.

Why I give
“I'm grateful for everything Stanford gave me—good times fountain hopping and tailgating, late nights working on Psets, and most importantly, lifelong friends and mentors. I give back to pay it forward.”

“Stanford is where I learned to dream and to explore. It’s where I made my dearest friends and where I first fell in love. My Stanford experience inspires me to look back with fond memories and look forward with tremendous hope. I give back so that future students can share in those gifts.”
