A sincere thank you to all for your generosity.
This initiative ran alongside the Class Reunion, a special event that brought together 300 alumni to celebrate their class anniversaries. On March 14, 11 classes spanning 1966 to 2021 returned to the newly renovated Cergy campus for a day of emotion, connection, and pride.
Starting in the 2026 academic year, these donations will support ambitious projects dedicated to academic excellence and social inclusion. Thanks to the funds raised through the Class Gift, the equivalent of 80 need-based scholarships will be funded for ESSEC students.
Throughout this year of engagement, driven by a strong spirit of solidarity and giving back, many alumni stepped up to honor their classes.
A friendly competition then took place to determine which class was the most generous or the most supportive; here are the results:
