The Office of Annual Giving administers the Penn State Annual Fund, which is the direct mail, phone (Lion Line), and e-communication operation of University Development, focusing primarily on alumni and friends of the University who give less than $50,000 per year. Efforts are highly centralized, allowing college and region-based development officers to focus on gifts above the $50,000 level.

More than 100,000 alumni, friends, parents, faculty and staff made gifts to Penn State through the Annual Fund last year. For the tenth year in a row, Penn State has more alumni donors than any other university in the country.

Each year contributions to the Annual Fund from generous Penn Staters enable the University to make great strides toward excellence in every area and discipline. Annual support may take many forms and may be directed to any college, campus, or program. Because of the generosity of alumni and friends, Penn State continues to make life better through teaching, research, and service.
