Centennial Campaign Latest News
We need the Centennial Campaign at this pivotal point in our history. We must ensure that future generations of students are able to follow in your footsteps. We must ensure that students who are ready to learn and serve are not prevented from doing so by financial obstacles. And if we want our society and region to benefit from young scholars who are capable of meeting the challenges of tomorrow, we must help them today. President Lester Lefton, 2009
Private support from donors like you is the key to opening the door to success for Kent State's deserving students.
Through the Centennial Campaign and its goal of raising $250 million for Kent State programs, alumni, friends, faculty, staff, foundations and corporations are donating vital funding for scholarships, new teaching and athletic facilities, research, libraries and experiential learning programs. By boosting the university's endowment, jump-starting capital improvements, and increasing current-operating funds, supporters ensure Kent State will offer life-changing opportunities for students today, and for the next 100 years.
And it starts with you.
