SUNY Brockport has always been more than a place to learn. It’s a community built on opportunity, belonging, and the belief that every student deserves the chance to thrive. This campaign is about investing in those opportunities and ensuring our students have the resources they need to reach their full potential.
Ways to Give
All gifts to Brockport throughout the duration of the campaign will fuel our goals and drive real impact for students.
Five priorities. One Brockport.
Help us build a stronger Brockport for generations of Golden Eagles by directing your gift to one of our five campaign priorities.
1. Scholarships
“This scholarship allowed me to participate in the Washington Internship Program, where I could grow academically & professionally in social work.”
- Maxwell Johnson, Social Work
Goal: $20 million
Through unrestricted, endowed scholarships, we can offer both need-based and merit-based aid — reducing financial barriers and helping Golden Eagles focus on their academic goals.
2. Student Emergency Funding
“I had to take out extra loans to continue school. This funding takes a lot of stress off my mind and allows me to focus on nursing.”
- Leah Price, Nursing
Goal: $5 million
Provide immediate financial assistance to students facing urgent challenges so that they can focus on their studies, persist through hardship, and achieve excellence.
3. Equity, Diversity & Inclusion
“With this scholarship, I could study abroad and gain a deeper understanding of other cultures, with the goal of becoming a inclusive therapist.”
- Helena Hamilton, Psychology
Goal: $5 million
We are dedicated to reducing barriers to access while building a more equitable campus for every member of our community. Through this campaign, we will be weave equity, diversity, and inclusion into the permanent fabric of our University.
4. Experiential Learning
“This job provides me real-world work experience and gives me an opportunity to network while I navigate my career path.”
- Isabelle Jean-Baptiste, Public Health
Goal: $5 million
Experiential learning gives students the chance to turn theory into practice, discover new interests, and explore the world through hands-on opportunities.
5. The Fund for Brockport
“This funding helped me afford new textbooks. I didn’t want to walk away from school with thousands of dollars in debt.”
-Connor Clingerman
Goal: $5 million
Gifts to the Fund for Brockport provide crucial, flexible support that strengthens every part of the student experience. These unrestricted funds allow the University to respond quickly to pressing needs, invest in new opportunities, and enrich campus life.
