Build Our Next Century | Claremont Graduate University
For more than a century, CGU has been a place for those who think boldly and aspire to make a difference: faculty whose ideas shape society and students whose ambitions transcend themselves. At the heart of this legacy is a commitment to opening doors and expanding opportunity through access to graduate education.
As we enter CGU’s second century, we are asking for your support to help build a strong foundation for the future. Gifts to the CGU endowment ensure lasting resources for world-class faculty and talented students, while gifts to the Annual Fund provide immediate assistance to students and faculty.
Philanthropy is at the heart of CGU’s success. We are — and will remain — the essential graduate university.
Centennial Priority: Growing our Endowment
A strong endowment is essential to continue to innovate and lead in an ever-changing world. This philanthropic investment will help provide long-term stability, expand access for exceptional students, attract and retain world-class faculty, and offer the flexibility to seize emerging opportunities.
Student Fellowship Support:
Make our programs accessible to promising students who want to gain knowledge, think innovatively, and take on complex challenges.
Faculty Excellence:
Attract and retain world-class educators who inspire, mentor, and advance knowledge.
Unrestricted Support:
Provide the latitude to adapt, act boldly, meet challenges and opportunities, and support student success.

Gifts of Stock
Gifts of appreciated securities, stocks, and bonds provide considerable tax advantages when transferred to CGU before they are sold. If you have held your securities for more than one year, you may find that your gift will provide a twofold tax benefit, creating an income-tax deduction as well as helping avoid the capital gains tax that would have been due on their sale.
