Campaign Goals
Investing in People
By focusing our campaign on these three philanthropic priorities, we will skyrocket our students to new heights and channel the strength of community to improve the lives of all Flyers.

Reaching Our Goals
Building Our Culture
Our campaign goals help build a culture to sustain UD's bright future. In addition to raising money, we have a goal to increase the number of new volunteers who strengthen UD with their time and talents.
Making an Impact
Every day, alumni and friends make a difference in the lives of students and strengthen the University. These stories are a few examples of how donors and volunteers help UD soar.
A Bold Trajectory
Setting Our Sites Higher
Since 1850, we’ve challenged the status quo. Now we’re charting our boldest trajectory yet: to raise $400 million by 2025 through a culture of philanthropy. For greater access to scholarships, academic excellence and hands-on learning opportunities — for all Flyers. We’re calling on you to help our community not just fly, but soar!
