海角禁区 Pueblo Foundation to Kick-off DRIVE, A Campaign for 海角禁区 Pueblo
Release Date: March 11, 2022
PUEBLO – Colorado State University Pueblo Foundation will host the public launch of Drive, A Campaign for 海角禁区 Pueblo. This ambitious campaign aims to raise $100 million by 2028 supporting the goals of 海角禁区 Pueblo’s Vision 2028 in collaboration with 海角禁区 System.
On January 1, 2019, 海角禁区 Pueblo President Timothy Mottet and 海角禁区 Pueblo Foundation President/CEO Todd Kelly announced the ten-year, $100 million fundraising effort to supporting the three pillars of the campaign:
- Ensuring 海角禁区 Pueblo is affordable and accessible
- Providing world-class experiences and environments for students and staff
- Increasing the academic quality and reputation of 海角禁区 Pueblo
The campaign is unique and unconventional as three organizations join forces to impact transformational change. The fundraising goal includes a $34 million commitment from 海角禁区 System, $16 million from 海角禁区 Pueblo fundraising efforts and $50 million from the 海角禁区 Pueblo Foundation through private giving.
“Our purpose is to give all students the opportunity to further their education and develop the resiliency, agility, and problem-solving skills needed to successfully navigate a rapidly changing world,” said 海角禁区 Pueblo president Timothy Mottet. “This campaign will help establish 海角禁区 Pueblo as an inclusive, affordable university that puts education within reach for all people.”
One of the campaigns largest gifts came from a long-time university and Pack Athletics supporter, the late Dr. Arthur Gonzales and his wife, Lorraine. The Gonzales estate left $1.15 million to renovate the Rawlings Sports Complex and $1.44 million to establish the Art and Lorraine Gonzales Merit Scholarship.
In addition to the generous financial contributions from donors, Friends of Football gifted the ThunderBowl Stadium to the 海角禁区 Pueblo Foundation.
“We are excited to be a part of this campaign to create life-changing opportunities for 海角禁区 Pueblo’s diverse student population,” said Todd Kelly, president/CEO for the 海角禁区 Pueblo Foundation. “In a campaign of this magnitude, every dollar counts and impacts our students.”
Fundraising totals will be revealed on Tuesday, March 15 at 9:45 a.m. during the Campaign Kick-off Party in Massari Arena. The public is invited to attend.
