On behalf of the entire Cornell Seismic Design team, we extend our heartfelt gratitude for your generous support of our crowdfunding campaign for 2024. Your contributions enable us to push the boundaries of seismic innovation, engineering, and creativity while representing Cornell University on a global stage.

This year, our team is striving to maintain our streak of first-place victories at the 2025 EERI International Seismic Design Competition held at the University of California, Berkeley. Your contributions are instrumental in helping us design, build, and test our cutting-edge, tower that upholds the legacy of excellence Cornell Seismic Design is known for. With your support, we can now acquire the materials, advanced software, and resources needed to achieve this ambitious goal while inspiring the next generation of innovative engineers.

Beyond the technical achievements, your support fosters a thriving environment of collaboration, learning, and mentorship. Our team members gain invaluable hands-on experience that equips them for future careers as leaders in engineering and beyond.

We are excited to share our progress with you throughout the year through our newsletter and Instagram, and we hope to make you proud as we compete, learn, and grow. Please know that your support truly makes a difference—not only to our project but also to every member of our team.

Thank you again for your kindness and encouragement. We couldn't do this without you!

Warm regards,

 Cornell Seismic Design Team
