Support the Future of CIMG

CIMG has a long history of shaping capable, confident, and career-ready students. The program equips its members with real-world skills, meaningful experiences, and a professional network that continues to open doors long after graduation. Now, we’re inviting the broader community—alumni, parents, partners, and supporters—to help strengthen that mission for the next generation.
 
This initiative is about more than funding. It’s about investing directly in students. Your support expands access to opportunities that transform lives: hands-on learning, industry engagement, stock pitch competitions, and the kind of mentorship that defines CIMG.
 
Whether you’ve been part of the group yourself or simply believe in developing exceptional young talent, your participation makes a difference. Every contribution, of any size, helps create opportunities that echo far beyond campus.
 

If you’d like to discuss the initiative personally, you’re welcome to reach out to Culverhouse’s Executive Director of Development, Nick Foster, at nfoster@ua.edu.

Thank you for supporting one of The University of Alabama’s premier student organizations.

Our Focus

Support will be directed to toward two priorities that strengthen the heart of the organization:

  1. Member Enrichment — elevating the student experience.

  2. Alumni Engagement — deepening connection and community across generations of CIMG.

CIMG’s pooled investment currently sits at $2,500,000 and does not need another cash infusion.
