|ank you
to our donors
When people ask what makes the
University of Adelaide different,
we reply that it changes lives.
C
ountless times a graduate has
told us, sometimes with tears
in their eyes, about what their
education has meant to them.
“It all began with the University
of Adelaide” is a typical response.
Gifts to the University help make
students’ dreams a reality. Gifts open
the door to success for our students
by supporting the high quality
and distinct learning and teaching
experiences that have established
our world-class reputation.
Thanks to our donors, the
excitement, vitality and passion for
the search of new knowledge that
we instil in each of our graduates
can thrive. Together we are preparing
leaders who are shaped by education
rather than by birth or wealth.
Your gift is hard at work preparing
the educated leaders of tomorrow and
supporting trailblazing research across
a wide range of areas to address the
grand challenges of our time.
No matter the size of the gift,
we are immensely grateful for the
support that you so kindly offer the
University of Adelaide. Be assured
it will make an immediate impact
for the students of today.
Thank you.
|is support has given
me the incentive to work
harder because I’m not only
doing it for myself. It is a
strong reminder of someone
having conûdence in me to
help build my future and I
want to do my best to make
my donors proud.
