Giving Societies
Longwood's slate of giving societies were created to recognize the longevity, selflessness, and impact of her supporters. Each of the societies is a celebration of a specific kind of giving—annual, recurring, loyal, lifetime, or planned—all of which are important to the sustainability and maintenance of the University's mission: to cultivate citizen leaders.
Longwood supporters may maintain membership in one of more of the giving societies if they meet society-specific criteria.
