As Alabama A&M University gears up for its monumental 150th Anniversary in 2025, the institution has officially kicked off its Torch Bearer Campaign. The campaign aims to raise an impressive $15 million through individual contributions over the next year. This initiative is part of a broader effort to generate a total of $150 million, which will significantly enhance campus resources and support student scholarships.
The campaign’s launch was marked by a successful inaugural reception hosted by Dr. Dorothy W. Huston, the retired vice president for research and development. Generous attendees contributed $50,000 to the fundraising effort during the reception. Key figures at the event included Robert Holmes, chairman of the 150th Anniversary Campaign, and State Representatives Laura Hall and Anthony Daniels.
