The Sentinel Society


The Sentinel Society recognizes a community of leadership donors who make a meaningful annual investment in the university. Together, these donors play a pivotal role in providing gifts that provide financial aid scholarships and fund RIT’s most pressing and immediate needs across campus. As a Sentinel member, your annual and unrestricted giving plays a crucial role in allowing RIT to offer scholarship aid to attract a highly talented and diverse student body, while enriching the RIT experience for all students. Sentinel members receive invitations to exclusive in-person and virtual experiences, special communications, early registration to select events, and recognition in our online honor roll.
