”UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — As Penn State prepares for the launch of a new campaign in 2026, it does so with the strong support of its community — even in a time when many are making thoughtful decisions about their financial commitments. In the fiscal year ending June 30, alumni and friends came together to contribute more than half a billion dollars, setting a new record for annual fundraising at the University. An unprecedented $369.5 million was received in the form of cash and other outright gifts, and more than 235,000 donors — another record — offered their support across colleges, campuses and programs.
“Thanks to our generous alumni and friends, we can continue to prioritize our students, expand access and empower every Penn Stater to succeed,” said President Neeli Bendapudi. “This historic level of support is a clear reflection of our community’s belief in the power of Penn State to transform lives and uplift the commonwealth and make a difference in the nation and world. I am deeply grateful for the partnership of alumni, friends and fans in fulfilling the University’s potential to lead and serve.”
This year’s fundraising success reflects primarily targeted support earmarked for areas that matter deeply to Penn State donors, and the results were driven by 19 commitments of $5 million or more, the highest total in any fiscal year. That number includes gifts to support the Beaver Stadium Revitalization project, which will fuel economic development in the Centre County region and generate increased revenue for all 31 NCAA Division I teams at the University, and philanthropic investments in Penn State’s academic enterprise, such as an $8.5 million anonymous estate commitment to the College of Engineering. The year-end totals also reflect support for student success initiatives, including a new gift from Steve and Nancy Sheetz to Penn State Altoona, and for other priorities expected to define the campaign, which will launch publicly next spring.”
