Financial contributions from alumni, corporate partners, and friends are key to the success of Isenberg. Your support, whether in the form of annual gifts, endowed gifts, or other forms of giving, is used to fund strategic initiatives and drive the school toward the next phase in its exceptional journey.
Isenberg has achieved remarkable success over the past decade, rising in national rankings and attracting world-class students and faculty members. For supporters who want to help us maintain this momentum, we have identified five priority areas essential to advancing the school’s reputation and propelling Isenberg even higher among the top tier of public business school programs.
Isenberg’s Annual Fund is a critical source of current-use dollars that fuel every aspect of the school’s mission. Annual gifts enrich the experiences of students both in and out of the classroom, expand the research and teaching capacity of our faculty, enhance our ability to recruit and retain top students and faculty, and help to ensure that students from every economic background have access to an Isenberg education.
While Isenberg relies heavily on current sources of income to take care of immediate needs, the endowment is critical to its long-term success. It is the foundation that keeps the school working today, while assuring support in the years to come. For donors, the endowment provides an opportunity to make gifts that honor loved ones, create legacies, and fund the people and programs important to them in perpetuity.
The Senior Gift Campaign is an annual tradition aimed at building a shared culture of philanthropy at Isenberg. Beginning with the Class of 2009, seniors have taken this opportunity to raise money to finance projects that leave behind a legacy and impact future students. These gifts serve as a way for each graduating class to showcase their own personality and develop philanthropic investors who are involved participants in the Isenberg School and its future.
