Associates Campaign: Support viticulture and enology education and research

The Viticulture and Enology Associates Campaign is an ongoing fund-raising campaign designed to support the activities within California State University, Fresno's viticulture and enology program that fall outside of university and grant funding.

Under the direction of the department chair and research director, this source of funding is used annually to promote our research and teaching programs and to extend our activities to the grape and wine industry, including our ability to participate at professional meetings such as the annual Unified Wine & Grape Symposium.

The ongoing struggle with our state budget has made this supplementary funding more important than ever.  Every dollar makes a difference.

On behalf of the students, faculty, and staff, thank you for your continued support and generosity.
