Foundation Celebrates Fourth Consecutive Record Year
The Kutztown University Foundation raised a record $10,415,005 and engaged with alumni and friends for 10,381 hours in fiscal year 2022. This takes the Foundation over the $10 million mark for the second year in a row. In October, the Foundation announced Together, We're Golden: The Campaign for Kutztown University, the largest in university history. This 100% student-focused campaign aims to double engagement and raise $40 million to fund scholarships and student experiences and increase emergency funds.
"I am grateful to our donors, alumni, volunteers, and friends for another extraordinary year," said Alex Ogeka, executive director. "Because of your generosity, more students are able to stay enrolled at KU, ultimately crossing the academic finish line. But there is still much work to do and many Golden Bears who still need our help."
Together, We're Golden continues through the end of the calendar year, and there are many ways to get involved to help us finish strong. We hope you'll engage with us at one of our many events, return to campus for Homecoming on October 22, volunteer your time to mentor students, and make a gift during the 1866 Minute Giving Challenge, October 18-19.
