Join us in celebrating the spirit of generosity and community on Vanderbilt Giving Day 2025. Every contribution, no matter the size, is a testament to the power of collective action and its impact on connecting aspirations to meaningful outcomes.
When you choose to give to Career Advancement and Engagement, your gift fuels career empowerment for every student we are trusted to serve via:
Investing in Student Career Success
- The Career Center Vandy Ready Fund: This fund ensures students have the necessary resources for a successful transition into their desired careers after graduation. Your support enables innovative technology, career readiness programming, and industry-focused toolkits that enhance student engagement and skill development.
- Supporting Internships at Vanderbilt: Your contribution establishes stipends that provide access to valuable un(der)paid internship opportunities for all students. These experiences accelerate professional success through networking and mentorship opportunities.
- Supporting Future-Focused Experiential Learning: Your gift facilitates hands-on learning opportunities and ensures access to life-changing educational and professional support for all students. It also offers industry-specific career coaching and immersive networking experiences through career treks.
Giving The Gift of Time
- We are excited to share that our Commodore Compass mentorship platform launched in late 2024. This platform is designed exclusively for alumni to connect with current students, fostering meaningful relationships that guide career exploration, preparation, and decision-making.
- If you are interested in partnering with the Career Center to be on a panel, lead a workshop, or recruit Vanderbilt students, contact Erica Betz (erica.m.betz@vanderbilt.edu or commodorecompass@vanderbilt.edu)
By giving, you join the entire Commodore community in making a significant impact on our students and scholars. Your contribution today will not only count toward our Dare to Grow campaign goal but also fuel our mission of career empowerment for generations to come.
As we continue to build upon our legacy of innovation and trailblazing research, your support is crucial. Together, we can shape the future of our university and make a lasting impact.
