Celebrate the Season of Giving — and the 150 Years of Impact at The American College of Greece
As we close this milestone year, celebrating 150 years of The American College of Greece, we are reminded that our institution has always been sustained by kindness, commitment, and generosity. From our earliest days, alumni, families, and friends have given so that others may learn, grow, and thrive.
That spirit matters now more than ever.
Today, more than half of ACG students rely on scholarships to pursue their education. Each scholarship represents hope, opportunity, and a future made possible — thanks to donors who chose to make a difference.
This season, we invite you to carry this legacy forward.
ACG President Ed Wingenbach, PhD, reflects on the importance of giving and the profound effect it has on our students and our future. We invite you to watch his message and join our community of supporters.
