Way to Go Camels!

On February 3, we called upon our supporters everywhere to Go Orange, Give Back, and Go Camels!

And you did!

Thanks to the generosity of countless alumni, employees, students, parents, and friends, we surpassed our goal of $1 million on #CampbellGivingDay! Yesterday, we saw the Campbell community boldly aim “to the stars” with gifts that support and empower the leaders of tomorrow. Thank you!

GOAL: 1,887 gifts, $1 million

In honor of our university’s founding year, we were striving for 1,887 gifts in just 24 hours.

“To the Stars” Challenge Complete

Your response is why we are so grateful to be a part of this amazing Campbell community.

Bob Barker (’65) and Pat Barker gave $500,000 to the Fund for Campbell and invited 1,887 alumni and friends to join them in matching their gift with another $500,000 raised on giving day.

Together, we raised over $1.525 million from 1,779 gifts!
