Philanthropy at CWRU

Community support has been critical to Case Western Reserve’s success since the seeds of the university were planted in 1826. 

From Leonard Case Jr., whose trust birthed Case School of Applied Science, to Amasa Stone, whose gift brought Western Reserve College from Hudson, Ohio, to Cleveland, philanthropy is deeply embedded in our history, and our donors� legacies live on at CWRU today.

But your gift doesn't have to be extravagant to make a major difference. Each gift, no matter the size, shapes Case Western Reserve’s future by providing students with hands-on learning experiences, offering growth opportunities to our esteemed faculty, and expanding research endeavors and creative collaborations.

Learn how CWRU recognizes its generous donor community and read about the impact of your support in the latest Annual Report.

Our team of philanthropy professionals is ready to answer your questions and help you find a meaningful way to give back to Case Western Reserve.

Our office, through the schools, the Alumni Association and specialized presidential committees, facilitates meaningful and productive community engagement that strengthens our institution and Northeast Ohio. Our volunteers offer the talent, experience and networks that lead to experiential learning opportunities for students and provide the bridge that connects world-class research to the needs of our community—allowing us to think beyond the possible.
