Office of Philanthropy

The Office of Philanthropy is responsible for facilitating charitable gifts to Eastern Illinois University and serves as the official point-of-contact on campus with Eastern alumni, university friends and community members.
The Office of Philanthropy places significant concentration on identifying, cultivating and soliciting major and planned gifts: participating in alumni and donor activities for purposes of relationship building, cultivation and stewardship; drafting proposals and meeting with individuals and corporate donors for cultivation and solicitation purposes.
The Office of Philanthropy spearheads University-approved capital campaigns working closely with University administration, campus philanthropy officers and the EIU Foundation.
