The Trevecca Society was initiated to recognize those who give at leadership levels to Trevecca Nazarene University. Members of the Trevecca Society significantly help empower students to go out and make a difference, to become world-changers, leap-takers. Gifts from Trevecca Society members impact Trevecca students by giving them experiences that inspire new passion and excitement for what they were made to do . . . to be.
Because these individuals, organizations, and others believe so strongly in the mission and vision of Trevecca, they annually contribute $1,000 or more for various projects and programs. They are committed to helping Trevecca succeed, and they give generously to ensure that it does.
Trevecca is a place that enlightens students to a broader world-view. It offers ways for students to feed their minds and fill their souls. It helps students discover their purpose. In light of that, the Trevecca Society helps change the world through investing in Trevecca Nazarene University, a place that changes lives.
* Those graduating in the previous 5 years will be welcomed to join for annual gifts of $500 or more. Also, those who give $500 or more and whose gifts are matched by their employer will become members.
** The Trevecca Society is the successor to the President's Club.
