Give Rise Faculty and Staff Campaign

We are proud to share that the university is making steady progress with Give Rise: The Campaign to Elevate Susquehanna University, which is well on its way to reaching a goal of $160 million for student scholarships, capital improvements and endowment contributions.

On March 3 – during OneSU, Susquehanna’s annual day of giving – we introduced a faculty and staff Give Rise campaign with a goal of reaching 70% employee giving participation. Thank you to those of you who made OneSU gifts. Your combined contributions brought our current employee giving participation to 60%.

Now, we can continue this good work, continue to support Susquehanna’s mission and hit our goal of 70% participation. If you have not yet made a gift, please consider doing so. All gifts made by faculty and staff, regardless of their designations or amounts, count toward our employee participation rate, which also helps secure grant funding and boost our institutional rankings.

You can choose to make a gift in support of the area of campus most meaningful to you, including student programming, university priorities and academic departments, or in support of the special funds below. You can also make a gift in honor or in memory of colleagues.

• The Caring Colleagues Fund, which provides timely assistance to employees in immediate need of essentials such as food, clothing, shelter and transportation
• The Student Wellness Fund, which provides resources and programming specifically related to our students' physical and mental wellbeing

Thank you for your consideration and for all that you do for SU.

Current dollar amounts reflected in this campaign are current to the 2021-2022 fiscal year and will be updated to the Give Rise campaign total at the end of the campaign.
