The Department of Development (Fundraising) launched the 2022 Annual Month of Giving Campaign scheduled from May 30 - June 30, 2022. This campaign themed ‘Looking Forward, Giving Back’ is an opportunity to rally the university community and its stakeholders to give in causes of their choice as maybe aligned to the 2021 - 2026 USIU-Africa Strategic Plan which has five goals of: Excellence in Teaching and Learning; Distinction in Research and Scholarship; Competitiveness in creative works; Innovation and Entrepreneurship; Excellence in Service and Community Engagement and Organizational Excellence.

Through this initiative, the Office hopes to:

1. Raise Kes 6 Million towards scholarship, student mobility, capacity building of staff & faculty and research programs. You also have an opportunity to create a cause of your choice;

Some of the causes you can give to include but not limited to:

2. Research Fund - An investment that will enhance and entrench research and innovation in providing solutions to African realities;
