"With your involvement and support, the Grand Valley University Foundation has been a cornerstone of the University's growth and excellence since the Foundation began over twenty years ago. With applications up and enrollment strong, the "college in the cornfield" of the 1960s is the university for the whole community in the 2000s. Helen and I eagerly anticipate the time ahead for Grand Valley, thanks to a Foundation with members like you who know how to give to make a difference." Richard M. DeVos, General Chairperson |

"As the largest university in the region, Grand Valley plays an important strategic role in driving the regional economy. Strong universities are essential to develop a well-educated work force, and are key to the quality of life that attracts and retains the best and brightest. That's where trustees and leaders come in, helping Grand Valley to grow through efforts like our comprehensive campaign, Shaping Our Future." James W.F. Brooks, Vice Chair |
