Dear Leeds Community,

I am delighted to share the Donor Impact Report for 2023-2024, highlighting many outstanding accomplishments from the previous academic and fiscal years.

Your support has enabled significant advancements across our entire school. Leeds awarded over $6 million in scholarships, creating transformative opportunities for hundreds of deserving students. We also invested in our outstanding faculty, providing resources that have led to groundbreaking research and enriching classroom experiences.

Beyond financial contributions, the engagement of over 8,000 alumni, parents, business leaders and friends has been truly remarkable. Whether serving as mentors, speaking in classesÌýor participating in events, you've strengthened our network and provided valuable perspectives that inform our path forward.

Looking ahead, I'm filled with optimism as we chart our course with Leeds 2035, our strategic vision for the future. This plan will build on our strengths and address the evolving needs of the business landscape, ensuring Leeds remains at the forefront of business education and research. Our vision is designed to make a meaningful impact on businesses and communities around the globe. I am eager to share more details with you in the coming year.

Thank you for your trust, passion and commitment to Leeds. You have made my first year unforgettable, and I cannot wait to see what we will achieve together. Business Buffs have truly stepped in to lead the next herd to success, and the best is yet to come.
