Together, We Make It Happen!
In 2024, 24 Hours of Giving inspired 589 donors to give $210,907!
Seeing so many members of the College community and SUNY Broome supporters come together last year during our largest day of fundraising was genuinely inspiring. Donor generosity fuels scholarships, resources, and opportunities for our students. Our students truly appreciate your commitment to their success.
Can we top last year’s remarkable results? Let’s see if we can raise even more in 2025!
From all of us at SUNY Broome — and in advance — we want to say… Thank you!

“I am honored to be a part of SUNY Broome’s Day of Giving.
I will always treasure my time at Broome (1981-1983). The educational programs, as well as the teaching and guidance by the faculty, were instrumental in directing me to a field that was very exciting and challenging. My time at Broome provided me with wonderful opportunities and prepared me well for a successful career. ”

“I contribute to the SUNY Broome Foundation because the opportunities and assistance afforded students at SUNY Broome constitute a vital community asset.
The Foundation — through scholarships, student awards, teaching grants, campus improvements, and more — supports all these facets of educational excellence at SUNY Broome.”

“Growing up, our parents always told us, ‘You must go to college.’ They never had the opportunity to receive more than a fifth-grade education, but they wanted a better life for us and instilled in us the importance of an education.
Because of their encouragement, Mario earned a Ph.D. in Physics, Loreta received a Master’s in Education, and I hold a B.S. in Engineering and a J.D. in Law.
We donate to SUNY Broome because we want others to have the same opportunities we had to receive an education.”

“It is not an overstatement to say that I owe so much of both my personal and professional success to the foundation that was set in place by my attendance at Broome. From teachers, staff, fellow classmates, and teammates, I formed a long-lasting bond to the institution.
For this reason, I choose to give back to the College.”

In honor of 24 Hours of Giving’s vital effort to help students afford their education, the SUNY Broome Foundation is pleased to share a few stories of our 2025 scholarship winners.
The SUNY Broome community has a proud tradition of coming together to help students access and afford a quality education. Private support not only makes a tangible difference in students’ lives, but also provides powerful encouragement. When a student receives a scholarship, they recognize that someone believes in their potential and is invested in their future success.


Approximately 375 need-based or merit-based scholarships are awarded annually to deserving students. Because of private support, hundreds of students are recognized for their hard work and can achieve their goals with less debt.

Our mission also includes providing the college with the funding to enhance our campus and acquire modern, up-to-date equipment, which keeps SUNY Broome at the forefront of innovation and technology.
