Hotelies are renowned as loyal alumni. By making a yearly gift, you can prove that we have the highest level of alumni satisfaction and pride. Contributing to the Cornell Annual Fund is an important way of supporting the Hotel School. Each year requests are made of every alumnus/a of the University to support the Cornell Fund. As a Hotelie, we encourage you to designate your annual fund gift to the Hotel School. Your unrestricted gift enables the Hotel School to provide additional scholarship assistance to our students. All donations are appreciated. No gift is too small. Increased participation and pledges serve to promote and further strengthen the Hotel School.

Contributing to the Howard Bagnall Meek Scholarship Fund is a wonderful way to honor the man whose vision helped found the Hotel School. Every donation over $1,000 entitles the contributor to a seat in the Statler Auditorium with a plaque in his or her honor, or someone of their choosing.

Discretionary Funds are used by the current dean of the School at his/her discretion. Some examples would be to allow students to travel to special conferences, to provide additional reserach funds to a faculty or to use for emergency purposes.

The Leland C. and Mary M. Pillsbury Institute for Hospitality Entrepreneurship(PIHE) at Cornell University's School of Hotel Administration strives to support and enable new business formation and innovation in the industry.

The endowed scholarship program allows the Hotel School to offer more than 350 of its students outright scholarship aid. These competitive financial aid packages to prospective and current students are possible through the Hotel Schools $2 million dollar scholarship program and are made possible almost entirely through the generosity of our alumni, parents and friends. Scholarships are an investment in the future. What was given to students as an act of faith many years ago will often be returned to the institution many times over. Young alumni can endow a scholarship for as little as $25,000.
