Giving

Thank you for considering giving a gift to the Department of History. Gifts to the department help sustain a challenging academic program, promote learning opportunities, and attract the best students and faculty.

You can donate to the program using this secure online formand select the fund of your choice: the History Alumni Fund for Undergrad Study, the History Department General Gift Fund, or the Kelly Family History Book Fund.

The History Alumni Advisory Committee Fund for Undergraduate Studies was specifically created to encourage and support undergraduate studies in history. This past spring, we organized our first annual trip to Washington, D.C., for our junior honors program students. It was an inspirational trip for our students, and we look forward to continuing it with future cohorts.  With past funds, we were able to take six undergraduate students to the annual meeting of the American Historical Association in New York City in January 2020. Your donations also support our HOUR program (History Opportunities for Undergraduate Research), as well as other undergraduate initiatives. 

Feel free to contact Jacquilyn Rizzo at jacquilyn.rizzo@rochester.edu or (585) 275-2052 with any further questions.
