How to Make a Gift

A gift directed to the Department of Sociology and Criminology will help us build our strong academic programs and enhance our ability to provide students with financial assistance to meet and exceed their academic goals. Thank you for considering a gift to the department.

Annual gifts, which are a commitment to donate each year, typically go to improving undergraduate student support—out-of-classroom opportunities like internships, education abroad, and student-group activities—and enhancing the teaching experience more generally. More substantial gifts can be used in a great variety of ways.

Please contact Lydell Sargeant, senior director of development, to talk about various ways your gift might be used.

Please note: To ensure that the funds are directed to the Department of Sociology and Criminology you will have to write “Department of Sociology and Criminology” in the comments field when you make your gift through Penn State’s centralized secure server
