Serra Dow Expansion Project
The Serras' leadership gift is driving an initiative to make two dreams a reality: a greatly expanded fitness/activity center for all Albion students, and a new or renovated competition facility for the Britons teams that currently call Kresge Gymnasium home.
Joe and Julie Serra have given a $5 million leadership gift to launch a fundraising initiative to make two dreams a reality.
The first is a newly expanded fitness and student activity facility at the site of the current Dow Recreation and Wellness Center. The second is a new/renovated competition facility for the volleyball and basketball teams that currently call Kresge Gymnasium home.
Albion College is a magical place for Joe Serra, ’82. He credits his time at Albion as one where he learned a lot and developed skills that eventually made him a successful businessman.
Joe and his wife, Julie’s generous gift will focus on a major expansion at the Dow Recreation and Wellness Center. The new fitness area will add about 11,000 square feet and feature a full range of exercise equipment, an additional multipurpose exercise room, new locker rooms (including all-gender), juice and smoothie bar and more.
I’m hoping it will help draw future students to consider and be a part of Albion.
This is a great opportunity to enhance what Albion College has to offer.
It’s something that our students deserve.
