$151.3 Million in Gifts Set Clemson Fundraising Record

Private gifts to Clemson University and IPTAY in the fiscal year ending June 30 set annual fundraising records for the university.

The record $151.3 million raised this year includes $100.1 million in cash gifts, pledges and gifts-in-kind; $11.5 million in planned gifts; and $39.7 million raised by IPTAY through its annual fund to support athletics. Clemson’s second-annual Give Day contributed more than $2 million from 3,265 donors.

“The value of the Clemson brand — whether it be for the quality of our academics, our research or our athletics — has never been higher, and we are incredibly grateful to our alumni and supporters who helped make 2017 a record year for fundraising,” said Clemson President James P. Clements.

This is the sixth consecutive year that annual fundraising at Clemson has exceeded $100 million.
