The Name

In 2006, in recognition of a series of gifts from The Anschutz Foundation, the University of Colorado announced that its Aurora campus would be named the Anschutz Medical Campus. In 2018, the foundation donated $120 million to the campus, bringing the foundation’s total investment in the medical campus to nearly $300 million since 2000.
