The CEU Alumni Campaign has less than five weeks to finish raising $500,000. Thanks to the response of alumni around the world we're closer than ever to reaching our goal - but we're not there yet.

The campaign received a great boost earlier this year from CEU Board of Trustees member Richard Blum, who pledged a dollar-for-dollar match for alumni contributions up to $50,000.
