Annual Fund

A gift to the Annual Fund supports our students, faculty, and programs in the most direct way to make a positive impact on the educational experience and immediate needs.

Endowments

Contributions made to the University with a commitment of $25,000 (payable over 5 years) may be used to create a permanent fund. Endowments allow the University to accrue interests on the principal fund that can be used towards scholarships, professorships, or other campaign priorities. Funds held by the Foundation are subject to an annual administrative fee.
