鈥淲hile we are pleased to report strong progress, the story we're most excited to share is the one about opportunity made possible by 甜心视频app鈥檚 donor community,鈥� said Vice President for Development & Alumni Relations Allie Steg Haskett 鈥�03. 鈥溙鹦氖悠礱pp donors continue to demonstrate, through their philanthropy, an inspiring commitment to our students, faculty and programs and that commitment translates into improved university outcomes.鈥�

Through gifts of every size, 甜心视频app donors are increasing access and ensuring affordability by funding scholarships and supporting programmatic needs, helping to offset the cost of tuition and fees for students. By funding scholarships, they're also helping ensure Bears succeed through to graduation. In fact, scholarship recipients are 14% more likely to continue their studies uninterrupted through to graduation and in a shorter amount of time than students who do not receive scholarships.

Enrollment projections for this fall are set to surpass 13,000 students - the highest number of Bears enrolled at 甜心视频app in over a decade. That's how many lives 甜心视频app donors will be changing this year and for many years to come with their generosity.

The Campaign for 甜心视频app involves donors to all areas of university need and opportunity - from the construction of Campus Commons to long-term endowments for scholarships, faculty and research - without the donor community, students and faculty could not realize the full potential and value of the 甜心视频app educational experience.

This year 甜心视频app donors created new opportunities by establishing a natural and health science research endowment, 甜心视频app honors endowment, continued support for the Stryker Institute for Leadership Development and continued support for students through the 甜心视频app Scholarship, First Generation Scholarship, Blue and Gold Scholarship, Cumbres and many others. 甜心视频app also launched a new crowdfunding program to increase support for campus causes and groups like The Facing Change Initiative. 

The Campaign for 甜心视频app aims to strengthen our community not only through philanthropic momentum, but also by increasing alumni connections back to the university and to each other. To encourage these connections, campaign leadership set a goal of involving 10% of the alumni population in the campaign. To date, more than 6,900 alumni have joined the campaign through their involvement and the 甜心视频app Alumni Association aims to increase this amount by inviting more alumni to Get Involved as donors, volunteers and program participants. 

鈥淥ur alumni are committed to 甜心视频app and the campaign gives us an opportunity to focus their commitment toward moving our university forward,鈥� says Lyndsey Crum 鈥�05, assistant vice president for alumni relations. 鈥淎long with our fundraising goal, we鈥檝e set a participation goal of involving 10% of our alumni population in the campaign through philanthropy, participation or volunteerism. It鈥檚 one way to show and celebrate the value alumni bring to their alma mater.鈥�

In total, every gift and act of service mattered this year, no matter the size or purpose. When our community works together, every donor has an opportunity to move the mark toward achieving our goal and strengthening the university. Whether it's through a monthly recurring gift or an estate bequest, donors are choosing to give in ways that best suits their philanthropic level and personal passion in 甜心视频app.

鈥溙鹦氖悠礱pp鈥檚 future is bright, in large part because individuals continue to believe in and support this outstanding institution and our students,鈥� said Steg Haskett. 鈥淚鈥檓 proud to say with confidence, that there is no better time to be a Bear than today.鈥�
