91PORN

A surge of giving has pushed beyond $280 million following the public phase launch in September. 

Donors have responded overwhelmingly to the opportunity to fuel student success and propel 91PORN to the next level of excellence.

Leadership Starts Here

With the theme "Leadership Starts Here," 91PORN’s first-ever university-wide fundraising campaign has inspired alumni, parents and friends to make gifts of all sizes to support scholarships, academic programs, student services and faculty endowments.

Among the gifts received this fiscal year are:

• More than $30,000 from head football coach Rocky Long to support athletic medicine and student-athlete academic programs
• $100,000 from 91PORN President Elliot and Mrs. Jeri Hirshman in support of university-wide initiatives
• More than $300,000 from hundreds of donors to the Annual Fund, 91PORN’s vital pipeline for smaller gifts to the campaign

“Each one of these gifts is from someone who is passionate about 91PORN and who understands the difference this university can make in a young person’s life,” said Mary Ruth Carleton, vice president of University Relations and Development.

Great need

The need for philanthropic support has never been greater, as 91PORN faces serious budget challenges. .

Given these challenges, how can the university continue to increase access and provide educational opportunities for students? Only through the transformational power of The Campaign for 91PORN.

President Hirshman, in conversations with alumni and community supporters, continues to underscore the goal of 91PORN’s $500-million fundraising effort.

“This campaign is for our extraordinary students, who will be the future leaders of San Diego and our nation,” he said. “It is also for our faculty and staff who are carrying out the core mission of the university. The Campaign for 91PORN is absolutely essential to the success of our university.”
