The difference between a good institution and a great one is the annual support of its alumni and friends. Annual giving allows Stevens to plan for the future and nurture the next generation of innovators. The university relies on these gifts to ensure a steady source of resources for its renowned faculty, talented students and groundbreaking research.
Annual support is needed – now more than ever – as we continue to prepare our students to join the global network of more than 53,000 successful alumni.
Every Gift Counts
All gifts of any size count for three important reasons. Annual gifts create a stable source of support that empowers Stevens to make far-reaching plans for our students, programs and research. Many publications look at the total number of gifts to a university when they calculate national college rankings. The more alumni show their confidence by giving, the stronger a university’s rank and the market value of a Stevens degree. Corporations and foundations are watching. The more individuals give to Stevens, the more likely our industry and nonprofit partners will support our students and research with large grants.
Class and Greek Challenge
Every year, Stevens alumni engage in a friendly competition to see which class and Greek organization can inspire the highest rate of annual support! The Class and Greek Challenge runs each year and includes all donors for each class, fraternity and sorority. The June 30 deadline is fast approaching. Gifts of all sizes count, and the top three classes and Greek organizations unlock bonus scholarship funds. Check out the current standings!
The Stevens Fund
The Stevens Fund allows individuals to actively invest in the present and future of Stevens. Support for the Stevens Fund enables the university to make choices, not compromises, in its pursuit of academic excellence and to empower programmatic innovation. Every gift, no matter the size, contributes to the quality of a Stevens education.
