The 5-in-5 Challenge
Help TCNJ Raise $5 million more!
The TCNJ community is always striving for excellence—and when it comes to supporting our school, Lions keep on exceeding expectations. Through the generosity of many, our campaign goal of $40 million was reached in January. Since then, our Trustees have challenged us to the 5-in-5 Challenge—to raise an additional $5 million in the 5 months leading up to June 30.
Why $5 million more?
More financial aid. More scholarships.
The totals include gifts from everyone that has supported The 5-in-5 Challenge, which includes gifts originating by mail and by phone. If you would like your name displayed publicly on this page, please email us at TCNJFund@tcnj.edu.
