Adelaide Society

The Adelaide Society honors the loyalty and lasting impact of Queens alumni who have made a gift of any amount, for three or more consecutive years. Named for Adelaide Anderson Davis ’61, whose generosity and spirit of service embody the very best of Queens, the Adelaide Society celebrates the alumni whose consistent support sustains scholarships, strengthens academics, and enriches student life through their unwavering support.

“Our Adelaide Society members are critical to the success of Queens and its students. Our alumni who make consistent annual gifts year over year make a huge impact on current students and enable them to reach their goals while at Queens and post-graduation. I’m grateful for this special group and honored to have my name associated with you!”
~ Adelaide Anderson Davis ’61, Retired Associate Vice President for Alumni Relations

During the 2024–25 giving year, 753 alumni contributed more than $1.6 million to support Queens. Their generosity touched every corner of campus, from the Queens Fund and Belk Chapel to academic departments and athletic teams.

Adelaide Society members join others who demonstrate steadfast support through consistent annual giving. Their loyalty helps ensure that future Royals continue to benefit from the transformative power of a Queens education.
