" Thanks to the support of nearly 18,000 donors, including more than 11,000 graduates, we’re proud to reach the original fundraising goal 16 months ahead of schedule. A lot of work remains, however, to fully fund key Academy projects and broaden graduate participation in the campaign. That’s why we are increasing the goal…. It’s a great time to support our Academy. Every contribution makes a difference, and I call on all graduates to join with us"
- Alex Gilbert ’87, chairman of the Air Force Academy Foundation board of directors.
