the campus of Case Western Reserve
University

Make a Gift
Financial support is the most immediate and tangible way to make an impact. Whether through scholarships for students, endowed professorships for faculty, upgrades to facilities, or grants for innovative research, corporate giving fuels the daily life of the institution. All of these enhance our ability to attract and retain excellent faculty and students plus maintain a collaborative, multi-disciplinary research and education environment fostering innovation.
Match the Gifts of Others
Corporations can also encourage the gifts of others by providing Corporate Matching Funds to support employees who give. These are simple programs to initiate, but they have a lasting ability to increase the participation and philanthropic giving levels of individual donors—and exhibit your dedication to the university.
Sponsor an Event
Advance your company's reputation for excellence and innovation by sponsoring an event, lecture series, initiative, or program. Endowment funds are particularly powerful tools for showing a corporation's long-term commitment to a valued activity.
Hire a Co-Op or Graduate
One of the most powerful statements that a corporation can make about its belief in a Case Western Reserve education is to hire an alumnus. In addition, paid internship and co-op opportunities are an excellent way to help cultivate a pipeline of talent professionals to build your industry's future success.
Provide Expertise
As a corporation or as an individual corporate leader, you have the potential to bring real world knowledge and experiences to our students. Case Western Reserve has a rich history of bringing visiting executives to campus to give talks and formal lectures on their areas of expertise. Corporate partners have also served on volunteer committees that help shape the future of the university. Corporations can generously provide "in-kind" support such as equipment, technology, and other non-cash items to help advance the capabilities of the university and areas of strategic interest to the corporations.
