Bruce realizes that hundreds of small gifts can be just as important as a few big ones. He started giving small donations in 1969 and gradually increased his gifts as his ability to give grew. He set the bar at 742 because that&#8217;s more recent graduate donors than we&#8217;ve ever had before.<\/p>\n<p>Do your part and become one of that elite 742 by making a donation of any size to Keene State. Your gift will help us reach Bruce&#8217;s goal and, since it will go to scholarships and financial aid for needy students, it will make a big difference in some student&#8217;s life.<\/p>\n<p>For more information, and to check our progress, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.keene.edu\/development\/giving-742.cfm\">visit the 742 Challenge page<\/a>.
