The Dean’s Circle represents a core group of annual donors to the College of Education, Health, and Human Sciences who understand the value of faculty and student research, and who have the capacity to support the College with a gift of $1,000 a year.
Half of all Dean’s Circle donations will directly fund research grants and outreach opportunities that support the College’s strategic plan, while the other half will create the Dean’s Circle Endowment to grow the program year after year. As such, all Dean’s Circle donations will have both an immediate impact and support the future of education at Florida State.
Dean’s Circle members will receive College updates, invitations to College events, and the opportunity to review faculty and student research and outreach proposals to help select worthy projects for recognition at the annual CEHHS Research Showcase.
Join the Dean’s Circle today online at give.fsu.edu/EduDeanCircle, or contact Assistant Dean for Development, Kevin Derryberry, at (850) 228-5021 to explore other giving options.
