The Brilliant Futures campaign is the university's $2.25-billion, fund-raising effort. The campaign started in July, 2003, and is set to finish in 2011.
The campaign focuses to encourage private donations, of which $1.5 billion is the Urbana-Champaign campus's goal. The campus will use the funds for research and campus programs, instead of building construction.
The university's last campaign raised $1.53 billion in private donations from 1991 to 2000.
