Fundraising

Several institutions report receiving more than $1 million and 2,000 individual gifts from alumni and donors.

Donors to two women's liberal arts colleges have been showing their strong beliefs in the institutions' missions—in a very big way—even as higher ed navigates COVID's disruptions.

The St. Louis university's chancellor says 'admitting the best students from all socio-economic backgrounds is obviously the first step.'

Thanks to 10,000 donors, Georgia State University broke a fundraising record and gave nearly 2,800 hardship grants to help students cope with COVID crisis.

North Carolina A&T received more than 20,000 gifts during the campaign, which is already paying dividends in research, new centers of excellence and scholarship assistance.

When concerns over fundraising arose, Muhlenberg College stepped up with innovative solutions and a strong focus on relationship building to enjoy record returns.
