MPK&D congratulates Bowie State University (BSU) on achieving the $50 million goal of its BSU Bold: The Campaign for Excellence fundraising campaign two and a half years ahead of the scheduled 2025 closing date.

Gifts have been made for a variety of purposes including the university’s endowment which has increased over 500% from $7 million to $40 million. This explosive growth provides extraordinary benefits to the university, including a new level of private scholarship funding for students which is timely in light of the elimination of the student loan forgiveness program.

Brent Swinton, BSU vice president for Institutional Advancement said in a recent announcement, “The Campaign for Excellence will not only continue, but will accelerate into an expanded goal, a larger scope and higher expectations commensurate with Bowie State’s increased prominence and visibility.”

MPK&D has partnered with Brent and his staff since April 2019 and is proud to work with BSU on the largest campaign in the history of the university.
