SUPPORT THE NEXT GENERATION OF CORNELLIANS
DONATE TO STUDENT AGENCIES TODAY
Your gift helps undergraduates gain real-world business experience—from launching agencies like Big Red Shipping to running yearbook operations—building critical leadership and entrepreneurial skills.
SAI pays out nearly $500,000 in wages, bonuses, and profit-sharing annually, helping students offset Cornell’s high-cost education. Your donation ensures more students can work and learn simultaneously.
Since 1894, SAI has offered undergraduates practical management roles across seven businesses—cultivating skills like financial analysis, marketing, and operations. Your support keeps this legacy alive.
SAI agencies serve Cornell and Tompkins County with everyday services—moving, shipping, tutoring—so your gift helps support both students and the broader community.
Donations help expand facilities like eLab and eHub, entrepreneurial incubators within the SAI Building, giving students access to mentors, coworking space, and startup resources.
Just like Ezra Cornell’s founding vision—to offer education regardless of means—SAI delivers access, income, and leadership opportunities. Your gift helps these students say “yes” to transformative experiences.
