The dollar pledge provides the MIT community with simple way to give towards MIT's mission while registering your support for students. To participate in the Dollar Pledge, you 1) donate the mimimum amount ($1) to MIT through the Alumni Association, 2) donate to a charity of your choice, and 3) tell administrators at MIT that you are doing this to register your displeasure with the way that student life decisions are being made.

02/17/11: A statement from MIT admins and student leaders on the future of REX

The Dollar Pledge donation drive concluded on Friday, Feb 18th. We exceeded our goals of 100 alumni donors and a total of $10,000 over the 3 week initiative.

• We raised a grand total of $11,046 for charity, from 123 donors, all of whom donated an additional dollar to MIT. The donor pool included students, parents and over 100 MIT alumni.
• Individual donations ranged from $1 to $1000
• During these 3 weeks, there were 1871 unique visits to the Dollar Pledge site, from 6 countries and 25 US states

We hope that this will encourage alumni to strengthen their ties with current students at MIT, and we thank everyone for their participation and support.
