Giving Recognition
Davidson's giving societies recognize our most generous donors and the disproportionate impact they create for the college and its students.

Fideles Society
The Fideles Society was introduced in 2004 as means to honor the most loyal supporters of Davidson. Fideles literally means 鈥渢he loyal ones鈥 and the giving society recognizes longstanding commitment to the college. Donors automatically become Fideles Society members after making gifts to Davidson for five or more consecutive years.
I came from a happy but poor family, but we were reassured in 1958 that while students may leave Davidson for academic or medical reasons, they never leave because of financial concerns. So, after I graduated, I wasn鈥檛 sure how, but I knew I鈥檇 give something back to Davidson every year.
