The Class of 2026 has made its mark at Bowie State University - in classrooms, on the yard, in organizations and throughout the community. Now, as seniors prepare to cross the stage and step into their next chapter as alumni, it's time to leave a legacy that lasts.
Introducing the Class of 2026 gift: "I Leave My Bulldog Mark." Seniors, your Bulldog Mark is your personal contribution to the Dorothy Holland Student Emergency Fund, supporting students in need. It's more than a donation; it's a bold statement of pride, connection and commitment to the next generation of Bulldogs. In honor of Bowie State's founding, seniors are encouraged to give $18.65 - but every gift, any amount, counts and brings us closer to a shared goal.
Ready to create your shared legacy? Visit the Bowie State University giving portal today and help the next generation move boldly forward. Friends, family and supporters can also make a designated gift to the Student Philanthropy Fund in support of the senior class gift.
