Living the Legacy Letter

As a valued alumni of Lehigh University, we hope you will be excited about this opportunity to support "Living the Legacy" – our pioneering scholarship program for Boston area students seeking undergraduate admission. Your financial support will help us promote our regional representation at Lehigh University through the sponsorship of qualifying candidates choosing the Lehigh Life. This is our opportunity to foster a growing Boston contingent at Lehigh University – contributing to the highest standards of excellence by example through our local representation. This special scholarship program has been established to allow your direct participation. The Lehigh Club of Boston has an impressive legacy of connecting prospective and new students to Lehigh University through the loyal support of alumni. This support, as evidenced by Alumni Interviews, Holiday Receptions, Book Awards and Incoming Student Sendoffs, has attracted some of the finest students from Massachusetts to South Mountain. While Lehigh continues to raise the bar of recruiting standards, the Lehigh Club of Boston strives to meet and exceed expectations through the sourcing of individuals qualifying for Living the Legacy - dedicated exclusively to our own Patriots! Each year, a maximum number of scholarships will be awarded as donations to the program will allow. Established in 2005, Living the Legacy was conceived with the express purpose of offering financial support to Boston-area candidates. Qualifying individuals exemplify the personal and academic attributes that Lehigh seeks: leadership skills, academic excellence and a proven dedication to community through activities and volunteerism. Currently, Boston is the only alumni club to establish and offer such a scholarship program, and we endeavor to have this program emulated by its success as a model for other alumni clubs to replicate. As a vested member of the Lehigh Community, we encourage you to join us in supporting this exceptional opportunity to promote the Boston community attending Lehigh University. Help make a prospective student's dream of Lehigh come true by Living the Legacy.
