Wheaton Associates

Pray. Promote. Give.

Founded in 1981, the Wheaton Associates program has built a legacy of faithful donors who pray for the College, promote Wheaton in their communities, and give to the Wheaton Fund annually. This group of committed donors is more than just a giving society. Wheaton Associates are partners in the Christ-centered mission of advancing His Kingdom through excellence in liberal arts and graduate programs that educate the whole person to build the church and benefit society worldwide. In return for their continued generosity, Wheaton cultivates spaces and communications to express our gratitude and build a relationship with each donor.
