Johnson Giving Priorities

Give where the need is greatest

Gifts made to the Johnson Annual Fund are unrestricted, which means Dean Mark W. Nelson can direct financial resources to activities that actively expand Johnson’s reach and reputation around the globe. $3.5 million in unrestricted support each year provides the school with spending power approximately equal to a $78 million endowment on the people, places and programs that make Johnson one of the best MBA programs in the world.
