Lincoln Latham '08
"I give to Wesleyan so others can experience what I did at Wesleyan. I appreciate the College and what it did for me more now than I did when I was a student.
I feel Wesleyan is on the cusp of something great. Because I live and work in the Owensboro community, I have noticed the momentum the College has gained over the last few years. I encourage my fellow alumni to give and help move the College forward to the next level."
