The Littauer Society

We are pleased to invite you to join the Littauer Society – a prestigious circle of alumni and friends, whose leadership support and enthusiastic commitment to the Kennedy School sets an example and inspires others. While we value each and every gift to the Kennedy School, we also believe that there are donors whose participation merits additional recognition – those who step forward as philanthropic leaders among their peers.

The essence of the Kennedy School has always been an abiding commitment to advancing the public interest with the influence of powerful ideas and the training of talented leaders. A Littauer Society gift provides the Kennedy School with the necessary resources to achieve these goals and move decisively toward greater excellence.


The Littauer Society
Our Philanthropic Leaders Each Year

Littauer Society Members support the future of public service education and research at the Kennedy School by giving at one of the following leadership levels: 

Kennedy Circle - $25,000 and above
 
Global Leaders Circle - $10,000 - $24,999 

Dean's Circle - $2,500 - $9,999 

Forum Circle - $1,000 - $2,499

Associate Circle* - $500 - $999

*Classes one to five years since graduation qualify for Littauer Society membership with a contribution of $500.

Littauer Society membership is renewable on an annual fiscal year basis: July 1 – June 30. Gifts may be made individually, jointly by a couple, or through the combination of a personal gift that is matched by an employer. Gifts are tax deductible as allowed by law.


The Sustainers Circle
Our Most Committed Donors

In addition to the Littauer Society, we wanted to create a way to acknowledge our most committed donors who contribute year after year.

The Sustainers Circle recognizes donors who contribute (at all giving levels) in five or more consecutive fiscal years. The Kennedy School has come to rely on these most loyal donors.

Sustainers Circle members will receive special recognition in our annual donor listing in the Kennedy School Magazine.
