Monash University has announced an ambitious philanthropic campaign to raise more than $200 million over the next three years to support student scholarships, teaching and learning, research and campus facilities.

Campaign chair Trevor O’Hoy (BEc 1976) made the campaign announcement at Monash University’s 50th Anniversary Gala Dinner.

Mr O’Hoy said that the campaign is a key part of Monash’s quest to become one of the world’s greatest universities.

“Through this campaign, we all have the opportunity to make a positive, sustained and truly significant impact on the lives of Australians and people around the world,” Mr O’Hoy said.

Monash University has already made significant progress towards the campaign goal, with generous donors already contributing a total of over $55 million.

Mr O’Hoy encouraged all Monash alumni to be part of the campaign.

“Please join me in supporting this bold, spirited adventure that will transform lives here in our backyard and around the globe.”
