Gifts to Annual Giving allow Princeton to provide extraordinary opportunities for learning and discovery; to extend the financial aid program to every student who needs it; and to help meet emerging needs and challenges. These unrestricted funds give Princeton the flexibility to undertake critical new initiatives such as developing the neuroscience program and attracting world-renowned faculty before a permanent endowment for the program is fully in place.
For the five-year-period beginning in 2007 and ending in 2012, Princeton is seeking to raise a total of $1.75 billion through a University-wide campaign entitled Aspire: A Plan for Princeton. Annual Giving is a vital part of the effort – in fact, the campaign’s first priority – and will be striving to provide at least $250 million over this five-year period.
