Creating Our Future: The Campaign for SKIDMORE

Naming Opportunities

Personalize your philanthropy and invest in Skidmore. 

Around campus you see a long history of philanthropy at work — from buildings and athletic fields to the Presidents Society Wall of Honor and the “bricks” that recognize graduating seniors.  Just as important are the named scholarship funds that support financial aid, the endowed professorships that recognize outstanding teaching and scholarship, and the endowed program funds that make lectures and events happen annually.  

Naming opportunities reflect all the priorities of the Creating Our Future campaign and support scholarships, internship stipends, the Center for Integrated Sciences, the Tang, athletics and more!

See below for a sampling.  Please contact the Office of Advancement at 518-580-5660 or campaign@skidmore.edu for additional information.
