Come to the Table – March 22, 2025
Come to the Table is the hallmark fundraising and vision event for the Ben Lippen community. The evening includes dinner, silent and live auctions, and a compelling program with music, guest speakers, and vision casting. Proceeds from this long-table dinner event and auction benefit our annual fund.
Alumni Day of Giving
Ben Lippen Alumni are a vital part of our community. Their active engagement and support ensure that the unique Ben Lippen experience they enjoyed continues for those following in their footsteps. Alumni Day of Giving is an exciting opportunity for our previous students and graduates to enjoy good-natured class challenges while supporting the school that formed a foundation for their lives beyond Ben Lippen.
Midlands Gives
The first Tuesday in May, we partner with The Central Carolina Community Foundation to raise funds for our Falcon Fund. Midlands Gives is a high-energy, 18-hour donation drive that raises not only donations but awareness about the value of and support for a Ben Lippen education in our local area.
Falcon Fund Parent Drive
Your first and most important gift!
Every gift matters, no matter the amount. Every year, we see small gifts come together for a big impact.
The Falcon Fund is a vital part of our annual operating budget and your gifts impact every aspect of a student’s experience, providing what most likely influenced your choice of a Ben Lippen education. Your gifts allow us to support enhancements in technology, improve campus security, invest in transportation, expand academic programs, and continue to grow our spiritual life, arts, and athletics programs.
You can make an immediate or recurring donation or a pledge conveniently and securely online. Pledges are due before June 30, 2025.
You can reach out with any questions to Dede.Ruff@benlippen.com, 803-807-4118.
