ONE Lees-McRae
Lees-McRae is more than a college. We’re a community. Together, we lift the institution to its full potential and create an educational environment where students can thrive.
ONE Lees-McRae is designed to deepen the bonds among all those who love the college. This initiative brings students, families, alumni, friends, and community members together with meaningful events and engagement opportunities and provides an avenue to connect more closely with the college.
Below, find upcoming events as well as resources to help you get more involved.
Together, we are ONE Lees-McRae.
Give Big. Give Bobcat.
At Lees-McRae College, momentum isn’t accidental—it’s built by Bobcats. For the month of April, Bobcats around the world will rally around the programs that define the Lees-McRae experience—culminating in 24 hours of generosity on April 30, when gifts to any of the three priorities will push us across the finish line together as ONE Lees-McRae.
- (April 5–11) PEAK Experience: Education in Action
- (April 12–18) Bobcat Club: Fueling Champions
- (April 19–25) Fund for Lees-McRae: Powering What’s Next
- (April 30) Giving Day: One Powerful Finish
