The Commit to Georgia Campaign was UGA’s most successful fundraising campaign ever.

The numbers tell us that’s true, but we believe

the most important number in $1.45 billion is one:

one more professor breaking ground in vaccine research

“It’s possible that public health interventions will help slow the spread, but we just don’t know for sure. It’s also possible that [novel coronavirus] could circulate continuously in human populations, and that’s where a vaccine would become an essential tool.”

-Ted M. Ross, Georgia Research Alliance Eminent Scholar and director of UGA’s Center for Vaccines and Immunology

one more scholarship turning a dream school into an alma mater

“Donors are doing more than helping a student get through college. They are investing in the future. That student is going to make an impact, and whether that impact is on one person or a nation of people, that’s a big impact.”

-Jaron Lehman (BMUS ’19)

one more experience that turns potential into reality

“I’ve learned that UGA is unique in the amount of care it puts into helping students transition into the workforce.”

-Tahira Allen (AB ’18)

All because of one decision to make one gift, repeated 613,495 times by 175,488 people.

And year by year, donor by donor, student by student,

All those ones add up

nearly

100

new endowed faculty positions fueling discoveries

more than

3600

new scholarship awards opening doors

over

900000

square feet of new learning and activity space

All those ones add up

The challenges before us are unlike any we’ve seen. But we’re ready, because of what helped get us here: Bulldogs.

Bulldogs who are united by a common, enduring commitment: to our future, to each other, to Georgia

So, we won’t call this a finish line.
We’re just getting started.
