What is university development?
Development personnel seek philanthropic support for California State University, Long Beach by nurturing long-term relationships with CSULB alumni and friends. Less than 50 percent of the university’s general budget is provided by the state; private support is imperative. The Division of University Relations and Development at CSULB also includes: • Alumni Relations Serves our more than 235,000 alumni • Beach Fund Generates unrestricted support for CSULB’s greatest needs • Estate and Gift Planning Assists persons who wish to redirect funds and property to CSULB and away from taxes. Estate and Gift Planning personnel can help you plan for retirement, reduce tax burdens and guide you to ways you can support students and programs at CSULB.
