You’ve already seen the Annual Fund in action. Here are some ways giving has directly impacted our experience as MBA students:
Research Center and Initiative Funds
These funds are essential to each center and initiative, from sponsored industry treks to underwritten events with reduced ticket prices.

This fund supported the renovation of the May Lounge at Harper Center, provided sponsorship for the Community Fund within GBC and SAC, and underwrote costs for Booth Family Dinners.

“As a current student, I recognize that my life-changing Booth experience has only been possible thanks to the generosity of generations of alumni paying it forward. I want to continue that tradition and leave Booth a better place than when I started my MBA journey—this is why I find it important to pay it forward via Class Gift.”
