The President’s Circle for Excellence directly supports students in their pursuit of a higher education. Your gift of $1,000 or more supports essential programs that remove barriers students face — things that we may take for granted, like the need for food, access to technology or financial means when facing a short-term setback.
The annual fund gives a boost to programs and projects needing a little “extra fuel.” Your gift helps students with scholarship support, leadership development and learning experiences that prepare them to serve and lead in the communities where they will work and live.
Located just north of the Henry Madden Library, Fresno State's Peace Garden stands as an inspiration and tribute to lives devoted to peace and activism. Your support will provide an instrumental additional to the Peace Garden: A statue of Nelson Mandela, South Africa's first black president and a revered bold leader who instilled a legacy of academic values and an appreciation for the power of informed and independent thought.
