In October 2007, the OSU Foundation publicly launched the university’s first comprehensive fundraising campaign, following an extensive, university-wide planning process which resulted in OSU’s Strategic Plan for the 21st Century. In 2012, the goal for The Campaign for OSU was increased to $1 billion in response to an outpouring of community support. Donors to the campaign are providing resources that create opportunities for students, strengthen Oregon communities, and allows Oregon State to conduct research that changes the world.
