About the
campaign
At WashU, we shape leaders, discover knowledge, and treat patients — all for the betterment of our world. We never stop pursuing excellence. We are always seeking new opportunities to contribute to the greater good.
To fulfill the bold promise of societal impact we imagine, we are proud to launch With You: The WashU Campaign. This multiyear, comprehensive fundraising effort will enable us to implement the blueprint for our future, outlined in our 10-year strategic vision, Here and Next — instated in October 2022.
With you is our rallying cry: We seek the engagement, partnership, and philanthropy of our entire community of alumni, parents, and friends to help us build a better, brighter world.
Together, we can create healthier lives, greater access, flourishing communities, future-ready leaders, and more.
We can forge unprecedented collaborations and generate exciting, novel solutions to some of humanity’s most pressing problems.
We invite each member of the WashU community to consider this fundamental question: If you could change one thing in this world, what would it be?
Let’s discover how your philanthropy, plus WashU’s mission in action, can create a more promising future for all. Every gift advances the campaign. Join us.
