Donor Relations and Advancement Communications

The mission of the Donor Relations and Advancement Communications office is to assist in building and nurturing lasting relationships between Rensselaer and its generous donors, by partnering with campus units to facilitate exemplary gift acknowledgment, fund reporting, donor appreciation activities and events. We seek to acknowledge, inform, and engage, current and prospective donors in the life of the Institute by illustrating the impact of their generous philanthropy.
