The fall 2014 issue of Campus Philanthropy, the annual news magazine for benefactors of Penn State New Kensington, is available on the campus website.
The 12-page, four-color publication recaps the recently-concluded seven-year For the Future campaign. Highlights include the campus campaign raising $3.8 million, nearly 130 percent of its goal; the 50th anniversary celebration; the charter members of the Arch Society; Alcoa as inaugural Corporate Partner of the Year; technology building named after former campus executive officer Robert Arbuckle; Alle-Kiski Society doubling it $26,000 pledge; and Chancellor Kevin Snider’s five-year strategic plan.
The lull before the next Penn State campaign allows Penn State New Kensington to focus on campus-specific initiatives for a few years. These initiatives include renovation of the Forum Theatre and a new softball field at the Alcoa Technical Center. Alumni and friends are encouraged to continue their generosity, especially during the fourth annual Penn State Day of Philanthropy on Tuesday, Dec. 2. The event is intended to raise awareness of private giving’s impact on the University and its students.
