Increasingly, corporate giving reflects corporate
interests and values. For many companies, corporate
philanthropy is an integral part of their strategy,
serving to enhance their reputation on campus with
students, faculty, and administration. More and more,
companies are aligning giving with business goals,
partnering with Universities to develop new
technologies, to provide a steady stream of well
prepared students undertaking internships, and to
build solid bridges with academic institutions for
post-graduate employment. We will work with your
company to ensure that your giving supports your
strategic business goals while assisting AUP to meet
its primary educational responsibility, that of
fulfilling its educational mission. |
