Foundation Year in Review
The NC State Engineering Foundation, Inc. led a successful fundraising year for the College of Engineering following the close of the Think and Do the Extraordinary Campaign in December 2021.
Fundraising totals to the College were $22,965,010 during the 2021-22 budget year. The College has invested in projects like Day of Giving, raising $1.5 million from 1,443 gifts in March. These donations are critical to the growth and development of the College’s programs — including the Women and Minority Engineering Programs — that round out and enhance students’ experiences while at NC State.
Endowments to the College generally fall into one of three categories: scholarships, named professorships and fellowships. There are now 61 permanently endowed named professorships and more than $78 million in total endowed scholarships. Total endowment support for the College is $230.1 million as of June 30, 2022, including directly owned assets as well as endowments held outside of the Engineering Foundation.
The annual giving program raised a total of $583,184.01 for the College of Engineering Leadership Fund. The Dean’s Circle, the College’s leadership annual giving society, has 510 members.
Two new staff members joined the College’s advancement team in 2022 and the team has plans to add more members in the future.
