Annual Fund Giving Challenge for 21-22 starts today

The Annual Fund Giving Challenge for 2021-2022– an internal fundraising campaign that supports our students and programs through contributions to the Cincinnati State Foundation– starts today, Nov. 22, and will continue until Friday, Dec. 10.

  • All donations– small or not-so-small– are welcomed and valued. 
     
  • You can choose how you want to direct your gift, by selecting:
    • a scholarship fund
       
    • a division or campus fund that provides funds for purchasing classroom equipment or other support for teaching and learning
       
    • a special initiative such as CState Accelerate, the Career Closet, the Surge Pantry Food Cupboard, or other projects and services
       
    • Options for giving are listed on on the pledge form (click to download).
