USF sets records for philanthropic support

Jo-Lynn Brown July 23, 2024

The University of South Florida set new fundraising records for the third straight year, receiving over $168 million in philanthropic support from more than 54,000 donors, in the fiscal year that ended June 30.

“The University of South Florida is an excellent investment in the future of the Tampa Bay region, our state and the many lives we impact through world-class education and research,” said Rhea Law, president of USF. “At USF, we say, ‘You have to be bold to be at the top.’ Our alumni and friends are both bold and visionary, and we are incredibly grateful for their generosity.”

The support received represents all-time highs for USF. Total donors to the university increased 44% over last year.

This year saw close to 11,000 new donors to USF and was the third consecutive year that philanthropy exceeded $150 million.
