Bring Back This Hands-On Program to Our First-Year Students

Will you help us raise $2,500 to make the Grand Challenge Poster Competition possible for this year’s class of first-year engineering students? Your gift will help fund the cost of printing 55 high-quality posters for all students participating, event venue/staffing costs and awards for four first-place student teams.

Your support is critical to bring back this event to our current class of first-year students!


Funds will be placed in the Freshmen Engineering Fund. If the project does not meet its fundraising goal, exceeds the project need, or the project cannot be completed, the funds will be used for the overall enhancement of the Freshmen Engineering Fund. Gifts are received by the NC State University Foundation, Inc. and may be distributed to an affiliated foundation that manages the fund supported by the donor.
