Strategic Goals
The university-wide For Humanity campaign is an opportunity to engage the entire Yale community. In addition to a financial target of $7 billion, our strategic goals support transparency, inclusion, and a stronger, more unified Yale.
Strengthen the bonds that connect alumni
Encourage alumni to engage with each other and with Yale through volunteerism, philanthropy, shared experiences, and communication. Sustain Yale’s relevance to alumni from the day they graduate.
Strengthen our foundation for the future
Continue to build and fortify relationships with alumni, parents, individuals, and organizations without previous affiliation with Yale. Nurture lifelong engagement with alumni of diverse backgrounds.
Energize our entire Yale community
Improve our community’s understanding of philanthropy and how it impacts students, faculty members, and staff. Partner with faculty and university leadership to communicate campaign priorities.
People are Our Greatest Strength
Yale is committed to the principles of diversity, equity, and inclusion. Giving advances these core values by helping us bring people from diverse backgrounds to campus. It supports their work, and enables them to thrive. Alumni, parents, and friends can sustain a welcoming Yale with gifts for research, teaching, our workplaces, and our community.
