The transformational gift from Bon French P’11 establishes the French Family Fund for Unrestricted Support, providing flexible resources that will help the university advance its highest priorities and respond to emerging opportunities. “This gift is an extraordinary vote of trust in Denison and in our future,” said President Adam Weinberg. “Bon and the French family have been steadfast partners for many years, supporting not only facilities, scholarships, and programs, but the people who make this university so special. Their generosity has helped strengthen Denison in countless ways.”
