With the support of faculty, staff, alumni, parents, donors and volunteers, “Now to Next” will raise $200 million by the end of 2021. The leadership phase of the campaign already has raised more than 65 percent of the goal. The impact of the largest campaign in F&M history will be to advance academic excellence, strengthen the student experience, and support the Franklin & Marshall Fund.
- The campaign seeks to raise $130 million to advance academic excellence, including expanding student aid and recruitment, investing more in faculty research, scholarship, innovation and creativity, and completing construction of the Winter Visual Arts Center.
- “Now to Next” aims to raise $50 million to strengthen the student experience, including increasing career-preparation services, creating new partnerships with the Lancaster community, improving student health and wellness programs, and providing an exemplary student-athlete experience.
- The campaign also seeks to raise $20 million to support the Franklin & Marshall Fund. This unrestricted annual fund allows donors at every level to support the College’s tradition of excellence for every student every day.
We need your help to achieve these ambitious goals. As President Altmann said, “We can take F&M to a new level of achievement in the arts and sciences, in scholarship and service. In doing so, we can lift F&M to a new level of national prominence.”
