Dakota State University Foundation Celebrates Record Setting DSUnite

The Dakota State University Foundation is celebrating the record setting success of DSUnite. The annual fundraising event, formally known as the DSU Gala, raised over $500,000 this year. 

Jill Ruhd, Director of Development for the Foundation, says that money goes to student scholarships at DSU. 

Ruhd says an anonymous donor helped make this year especially successful. 

Ruhd says a big factor in the recent fundraising success at Dakota State is the leadership of DSU President, Dr. José-Marie Griffiths.

The DSU Foundation is also still raising funds for the Trojans Unite Comprehensive Campaign, the first comprehensive capital campaign at Dakota State, with a fundraising goal of $250 million.
