Giving

Kent State University and Cleveland Clinic have announced a multiyear partnership in which Cleveland Clinic becomes the official healthcare provider for Kent State Athletics. Cleveland Clinic will serve as the medical services provider to support Kent State student-athlete health and wellness.

John Elliot, a 1970 Kent State University graduate, and his wife, Fonda, have created The Elliot Scholars program at Kent State with a $1 million donation. This new scholarship program will provide support to first-generation students of any major who require financial support to attend Kent State.

Members of the Kent State University community joined together to cause a ripple effect of change reaching far beyond Kent State, raising more than $4.9 million to support scholarships and programs across the university for its Giving Tuesday 2024 campaign.
