Accelerating Impact

Breaking records together at RISD: Our donors made FY 2019 the best fundraising year in RISD history, which included setting a new high bar for the RISD Fund.

As just one example, your generosity helped launch a new Social Equity and Inclusion program that this year is providing 79 incoming high-need undergraduate students with $1,000 per year for materials, a $3,000 grant to take an unpaid internship and up to $5,000 to embark on RISD Global learning experiences during their RISD careers.

You made it happen.  Thank you.

Every gift has been put to work to ensure that the full potential of the RISD experience is made available to every student.

Graphic showing that 871 people gave or increased their giving, 3,771 donors gave to RISD, $3.7 million was raised for the RISD Fund, and a total of $30.6 million was raised for RISD in Fiscal Year 2019.
