Shaping the Course of Tomorrow Today
In a remarkable display of community support, the GO Beyond: The Campaign for Future Makers has surpassed the $1 billion mark. This ambitious fundraising effort, which aims to raise $1.25 billion, reached $1.006 billion as of June 30, marking the end of the fiscal year.
The campaign, which began with a vision to show the community's capacity to dream big and go beyond what others think is possible, has received gifts from over 63,000 alumni, parents, students, and friends since its inception.
A significant portion of the funds raised, totaling $297,390,600, has been allocated for scholarships and financial aid. This allocation has resulted in 355 new endowed scholarships, providing financial support for students who might otherwise struggle to afford higher education.
The student experience is another area that has benefited from the campaign, with a donation of $423,739,942 made anonymously in June 20XX. This substantial contribution will undoubtedly enhance the overall student experience at our institution.
In addition to scholarships and the student experience, the campaign has also allocated funds for research, capital projects, and faculty support. A total of $285,245,814 has been set aside for these purposes.
Carol Packard, the Vice President for Development and Alumni Relations, expressed her gratitude for the overwhelming support the campaign has received. She emphasised that the campaign is not just about reaching a financial goal, but about transforming lives and making a lasting impact on the institution and its community.
With $250 million still to be raised, the campaign is far from over. However, with the incredible momentum it has gathered so far, it is clear that the community is committed to going beyond what others think is possible.
As the campaign continues, it is exciting to imagine the future that lies ahead for our institution and the students it serves. The GO Beyond: The Campaign for Future Makers is more than just a fundraising effort—it is a testament to the power of community, the importance of education, and the limitless potential of dreams.
