Binghamton Fund Campaign Goal
Sustain and grow a $2 million annual giving program to immediately meet financial aid needs of students and shape teaching, research and programs across the University.
Planned Giving Campaign Goal
Double membership in The Esther W. Couper Heritage Society to help donors support their passions at Binghamton and make an impact that extends beyond their lifetimes.
The Couper Society recognizes and celebrates donors who support Binghamton’s future by planning a gift in their will or other estate plan. Members are associated with other leaders who share a similar dedication and vision for advancing Binghamton. The recognition society is named in honor of the late Esther W. Couper, who provided generously for Binghamton, devoting her time and financial support to strengthen the University and its role in the community in which she lived.
EXCELERATE goal: Raise at least $220 million

$21.9 million to make an exceptional education accessible for determined and talented students.
