Give to Purchase
Your generosity lets them know they’re on the right path.
We’re public, but we still need private gifts.
The State of New York provides less than 20% of the College’s annual operating budget.
Private gifts allow us to attract the most talented students with scholarships, retain the best and brightest faculty, build facilities, and enhance learning through equipment and experiences.
They allow us to continue our founding mission as a place where students of modest backgrounds and remarkable cultural and social diversity could receive the finest quality arts and liberal arts education. We remain a unique environment for learning. And proudly public.
Let students be students.
Whether they come to Purchase laser-focused on their craft or need some time to explore their options, your support gives them the space and time they need to succeed.
To engage fully means devoting time to academics, in and out of the classroom, pursuing applied learning experiences, and engaging socially.
It’s a gift for students to be allowed to find their voices without the stress of wondering how they’ll pay their tuition bill.
Thank you for filling these gaps.
Small gifts and large come together to…
- Provide need- and merit-based scholarships
- Ensure the faculty have the resources they need
- Strengthen our academic and cultural programs
- Create a better student life experience
- Support community arts education provided by the Neuberger Museum of Art and The Performing Arts Center
The Purchase College Foundation, a 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization, is our liaison between donors and the college, Neuberger Museum of Art, and The Performing Arts Center (The PAC).
