How Your Support Strengthened ILR
“With support like yours, I’ve been able to participate in hands-on learning opportunities—such as the Winter Intersession program—which helped me clarify my interests and solidify my passion to serve as an Intelligence Officer. These experiences, together with my leadership development as an Air Force ROTC cadet at Detachment 520, have meaningfully prepared me for this path.”
—Marco Carlos Martini ’27
“Annual Fund support is vital to me and the ILR School. These funds were used to support faculty research and professional development opportunities, ensuring we continue to bring the highest quality teaching and learning experience to our ILR students.”
—Alex Colvin
Kenneth F. Kahn ’69 Dean, Martin F. Scheinman ’75, MS ’76, Professor of Conflict Resolution
“Providing hands-on experiences for ILR students, both domestically and globally, does more than complement classroom learning, it shapes perspective, sharpens critical thinking, and cultivates purpose. These transformative experiences equip students with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to be thoughtful future leaders in the evolving world of work.”
—Brigid Beachler, Director, Engaged and Experiential Learning Programs
The Value of Flexible Support
The opportunities and experiences that define an ILR education are made possible by alumni, parents, and friends like you who believe in ILR’s ability to improve workers’ lives, influence workforce policies, and address the most pressing challenges facing workplaces today.
Through the flexible support of the ILR Annual Fund, your generosity helps meet emerging needs, seize new opportunities, and invest where the impact can be greatest. Long before the broader results are visible, your philanthropy helps drive meaningful change for students, faculty, and the future of work. That is the quiet power of the ILR Annual Fund—and we are deeply grateful for your support.
