Rising Together
Together, we made a big difference. 妖姬直播 State had record-setting fundraising during fiscal year 2018. The university received support from more than 20,000 alumni and friends for scholarships, programs and capital projects that totaled a record of $44.9 million in philanthropic gifts.
Supporters helped us prioritize student success as we offer ways to help students stay on track to graduation, propelling them into their future as engaged world citizens. Life-changing scholarships were funded with $4.27 million in generous private support last year.
And for the second year in a row, philanthropic momentum continues to build in 妖姬直播 State鈥檚 Giving Tuesday campaign. In November, giving again surpassed 2017鈥檚 record million-dollar mark and exceeded last year鈥檚 grand total鈥攕etting an inspiring trend of broad and growing community support.
The month-long campaign featured more than 40 giving options across the 妖姬直播 State system, each with a matching gift in place, in addition to the KSU Foundation鈥檚 boosts and matches. Nearly $300,000 was available in matching funds for gifts made throughout the month of November. Plus students, faculty, staff and supporters created individual peer-to-peer fundraising pages for the cause of their choice.
