Support Pomona’s Mission

Our Mission

Throughout its history, Pomona College has educated students of exceptional promise. We gather individuals, regardless of financial circumstances, into a small residential community that is strongly rooted in Southern California yet global in its orientation. Through close ties among a diverse group of faculty, staff and classmates, Pomona students are inspired to engage in the probing inquiry and creative learning that enable them to identify their intellectual passions and address local and global issues. This experience will continue to guide their contributions as the next generation of leaders, scholars, artists and engaged members of society to fulfill the vision of the College’s founders: to bear their added riches in trust for all.

Your gift to Pomona contributes to the exceptional Pomona educational experience and academic excellence our students receive and plays a major role in upholding the College’s mission across generations. Because of the generosity of donors like you, the College is able to maintain its commitment to need-blind admissions and financial aid, fully meeting the demonstrated need of every student who attends.

Our gift planning team is here to assist you in contributing to the College’s mission through careful gift and legacy planning, and more. We will help you with answers to your questions about leaving a legacy that impacts students, faculty and Pomona College deep into the future.
