Levels of Giving and Gift Opportunities

 

Your donation supports economic policy research and allows our faculty the opportunity to train, educate, and support graduate students as future economic policy analysts. We encourage unrestricted gifts to the SIEPR general fund, which provides both long-term stability and the flexibility to fund important emerging and ongoing projects.

 

SIEPR donors will be invited to various outreach events and receive SIEPR Perspectives, e-newsletters, briefs and other SIEPR publications.
