Transforming Gifts Produce Transforming Results
From its inception, Columbus State University’s An Investment in People capital campaign wasn't solely about raising money; it has been more about impact. It has enhanced university programs and facilities, and it has empowered the university to make even greater contributions to the economic, cultural and social well-being of the region it serves. It has shown how philanthropic resources invested in people can be leveraged into serious social and economic rewards.This campaign is having a transforming effect on the university in the form of state-of-the-art facilities, student scholarships and endowed faculty chairs, library acquisitions, campus enhancements and other initiatives that push the frontiers of knowledge. Perhaps of greater importance, the campaign has directly linked in the public’s mind the long-term destiny of the Columbus region with the quality of Columbus State University. Although difficult to quantify or even imagine the truly transforming effect this campaign is going to have, tangible examples of the campaign’s impact, including these, can be seen throughout our city and beyond:
