Why My Gift Matters

Every Gift Makes a Difference

Every gift to the Business School Fund makes a difference in its own right and demonstrates the tremendous power of collective giving. For example, to generate the buying power of a $500 gift would require $10,000 in endowment. Here are more ways that individual gifts to the Business School Fund add up to have a real impact on life at the GSB by helping fund the following:

  • Salaries of junior faculty, the rising stars who do so much to shape the GSB experience for students
  • Student events like the 2012 Future of Media conference featuring keynote speaker Chloe Sladden, MBA ’02, Director of Content and Programming at Twitter
  • New instructional technology, including distance learning and simulations that bring classroom lessons to life
  • IT investments to boost faculty and staff collaboration
  • PRIE, a new multidisciplinary Program in Innovation an Entrepreneurship that brings together graduate students from across Stanford with Silicon Valley innovators, scientists, and engineers
