About the Foundation
Rutgers University Foundation raises funds to support Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey. By providing the bridge between donors and the schools and programs, faculty, and students that make up the university, it helps match caring people with satisfying and meaningful opportunities to make gifts that have an impact on Rutgers and beyond.
Since 1973, the Rutgers University Foundation has inspired philanthropic support and enduring connections with alumni and friends, enabling Rutgers to transform lives. It is a 501(c) (3) tax-exempt organization whose sole mission is to support the Rutgers community. Gifts made through the foundation are deductible for federal income, gift, and estate tax purposes.
