California State University Stanislaus today released an accounting summary of the 50th Anniversary Fundraising Gala, hosted by the University Foundation on June 25. Total fundraising surpassed expectations by raising more than $473,000, with net proceeds of over $207,000, making it the most successful fundraiser held in CSU Stanislaus history.
Dr. Ham Shirvani, President of CSU Stanislaus, praised the Foundation for its aggressive and successful fundraising efforts.
“Thanks to the Foundation’s generosity and fundraising, our 50th Anniversary Fundraising Gala was a huge success,” Shirvani said. “I am excited to report that based upon my request, the Foundation has agreed to allocate all of the net proceeds for scholarships, helping us give students peace of mind so they can focus on their academic achievements.”
Shirvani continued, “During these difficult economic times, I am especially proud that we have received an unprecedented level of private support to celebrate 50 years of academic excellence and to help us continue providing hardworking students access to higher education."
“We must support our students and foster their success through fundraising events like these. CSU Stanislaus’ ability to provide access to a quality education, inspire life-long learning in the work place, support economic growth, and meet the growing demand for college graduates depends on adequate financial resources, including private support. I applaud the Foundation for its hard work and thank the University’s supporters for their dedication to higher education.”
