AAMU 150th Anniversary Campaign Surpasses $5 Million in Individual Gifts

Alabama A&M University has surpassed $5 million in individual gifts as part of its 150th Anniversary fundraising campaign—an inspiring milestone that reflects the deep pride, purpose, and passion of alumni, friends, and supporters worldwide. This remarkable achievement marks a surge of momentum in what is poised to become the most successful fundraising effort in the University's history.

With sights set on transforming the future of AAMU, the campaign is focused on expanding scholarship support, enhancing campus facilities, and empowering the next generation of Bulldog leaders. Full campaign details and opportunities to give can be found at www.aamu.edu/150.

Fueling the campaign’s success is the Torchbearer Initiative, a series of giving events where small groups of alumni and supporters unite to raise a minimum of $25,000 per group. To date, 54 Torchbearers have collectively contributed more than $1.4 million through the events.
The campaign marches on throughout this special Anniversary year. As the countdown to December 31 continues, the University is rallying all Bulldogs to make history. Every gift—large or small—celebrates the rich heritage and bold future of Alabama A&M.
