About the Division of Advancement

The offices of Development and Alumni Engagement along with advancement leadership make up the Division of Advancement team of approximately 35 employees whose works supports every aspect of Binghamton University's mission.

Working with the Binghamton University Foundation, University partners on campus, and the boards of the Foundation and of the Alumni Association, the division strengthens the University and elevates the Binghamton experience for students, faculty, staff, alumni, donors and everyone who shares a passion for the University and its continued success.

Advancement and the University thrive thanks to gifts of time, talent and financial support from alumni, donors and other friends. In addition to volunteering as mentors and participating at alumni events worldwide, philanthropy is another important and meaningful way our alumni deepen their engagement and stay connected to Binghamton. 

With generous donor support, Advancement has completed two successful fundraising campaigns: Believe in Binghamton and Bold.Brilliant.Binghamton — The Campaign for Binghamton University. 

Bold.Brilliant.Binghamton, a seven-year initiative that ended June 30, 2012, raised $101.2 million to enhance the University. Our inspired, involved and invested alumni made all the difference — then and now.

The University is currently in the seventh and final year of its third comprehensive-gifts campaign, EXCELERATE: Moving at the Speed of Binghamton. The goal is to raise at least $220 million by June 30, 2024.  

Thank you for your generosity!
