Only 4% To Go!
With incredible support, our campaign is going strong. But to meet our campaign goals, we will need to raise the remaining 4% by December 31, 2024 to support campaign priorities from the school’s long-range strategic plan.
Forever Orange: The Campaign for Syracuse University
Forever Orange is more than a campaign to raise $1.5 billion in philanthropy for Syracuse University. It is our ability to impact people—to change the trajectory of our students’ lives and careers and to advance faculty research and innovation that benefit the whole world.
