The Missouri State Annual Fund is one of the most effective and direct ways alumni, parents and friends can contribute to Missouri State University.  Student fees do not cover the entire cost of an education.  With the Missouri State Annual Fund, we strive to narrow the gap which is why we rely on the support of alumni, parents and friends of the University.

Every aspect of the University benefits from these contributions.  Gifts made through the Missouri State University Foundation are responsible for enhancing the opportunities we offer current and future students.  Every gift, no matter its size, makes a difference and allows us to continue to provide the quality educational opportunities that characterize the University.  Don't forget, you can designate where you would like your gift to be spent.

The Missouri State Annual Fund program is a component of Missouri State University's Advancement efforts within the Office of Development and Alumni Relations.  Our office is headquartered in The Kenneth E. Meyer Alumni Center.

Matching Gifts Over 8,800 corporations and businesses in the United States recognize the need and provide support for higher education through individual matching gift programs.  Gifts are often matched at a dollar-for-dollar rate; however, some companies offer programs which double, triple and in some cases quadruple gifts.
