Thank you for your commitment to the College of Education. Education at Illinois continues to address the challenges facing today’s learners by advancing knowledge and impacting policy through research, teaching, and service. We appreciate your partnership to enhance the mission of our College.
The 2020 Faculty and Staff Giving Campaign is now underway! Until mid-March, we are asking all faculty and staff to consider making a gift to the College of Education fund of your choice. Private support is more important than ever for our students, programs, and scholars. It is necessary to develop the tools, methods, and habits that inspire innovation; to make education equitable and accessible for all; and to prepare leaders, researchers, and passionate advocates committed to transforming learners of all ages.
Please consider supporting the College of Education through the fund of your choice:
EDUCATION AT ILLINOIS SCHOLARSHIP FUND: The Education at Illinois Scholarship Fund provides unrestricted scholarship support to current students, helping recruit the best and brightest learners and ensuring access to a first-rate education.
COLLEGE OF EDUCATION FUND FOR EXCELLENCE: The Fund For Excellence is used to support priorities not covered by State funding. These gifts fund the most pressing needs of the college of Education and the priorities established by the Dean of the College, such as recruitment, facility improvements, and research programs.
If you would like to designate your gift toward a department-specific fund, please contact the Advancement Office.
As faculty and staff, we encourage you to make your gift via payroll, a pre-tax deduction. Please see pledge forms, or you can donate online with a one-time gift here.
As a token of our appreciation a Great Minds Think Illinois messenger bag will be given to those who:
- Make a first time gift to the College through payroll deduction
- Increase their current payroll deduction gift
Please forward your gift confirmation page to advancement@education.illinois.edu.
Every gift impacts a student who walks through our doors. Together, we can accomplish educating future leaders in the College of Education. Make 2020 the year to start a payroll deduction that invests in the future of education.
