AUGUSTANA NOW goes on the road
From California to Massachusetts, President Steve Bahls will visit 24 cities to update alumni on the college’s $125 million fundraising campaign, AUGUSTANA NOW: A Campaign for Success in the World, for the World.
Our goal for AUGUSTANA NOW: A Campaign for Success in the World, for the World is $125,000,000.
This campaign is a call to you and our college community to make Augustana a force for real, lasting change in the world.
From now until Dec. 31, 2020, every gift to Augustana College will contribute to this campaign.

The Augustana Fund: These gifts are especially important because they are flexible, allowing us to respond to unexpected challenges and to new opportunities.
Capital projects: These projects include the expansion of Hanson Hall of Science, the renovation of the Bergendoff Hall of Fine Arts, and the renovation and expansion of the Betsey Brodahl Building.
Endowment fund: These gifts build a permanent legacy and resource that makes a difference now and for generations to come.
