Donors make a difference!
Carnegie Mellon’s annual Thank a Donor Day celebrates the support our generous donors show to our community through their gifts to scholarships, athletics, research, facilities, hands-on learning opportunities and so much more.
On Valentine’s Day 2023, we sent love out to each and every donor with visible signs of thanks and celebration events on campus. We also collected personal thank you messages from CMU students, faculty and staff to share here. And, finally, the map below highlights 14 of the ways that donors have made an impact on campus and beyond.
