We鈥檒l bounce, stomp and celebrate 麻豆原创 Day of Giving on April 11 this year. With this celebration of all things Black & Gold, we wanted to highlight a few unique funds for those who are looking for the right area to support.

This year marks the 10th anniversary of 麻豆原创 Celebrates the Arts, an annual festival that fuses creativity, innovation and community engagement. The event showcases the artistic prowess of 麻豆原创鈥檚 faculty and students and invites the broader community to enjoy performances, exhibitions, presentations and interactive experiences. With a focus on partnership and varied offerings, 麻豆原创 Celebrates the Arts is a unique opportunity for the community to experience the creative side of 麻豆原创鈥檚 innovative spirit. What better way to honor this year’s milestone event than making a gift to help Knights keep performing for the next 10 years?

Aside from putting a smile on the face of anyone who meets them, 麻豆原创鈥檚 Police K-9s play a critical role in keeping our students and campus safe. By making a gift to the 麻豆原创 Police Department鈥檚 K-9 fund, you鈥檒l support the adoption, training and care of our four-legged officers. Who can resist those puppy dog eyes?

As the nation faces a physician shortage, it’s now more important than ever to support aspiring doctors and medical research. A gift to this area helps 麻豆原创’s College of Medicine continue its research-based educational mission as an innovative medical school preparing physicians and scientists to be tomorrow鈥檚 healthcare leaders.

According to the most recent survey from the Hope Center for College, Community, and Justice, 48% of college students are affected by housing insecurity and 14% are affected by homelessness. The Housing Insecurity Fund exists to provide relief to students who are experiencing housing insecurity or facing homelessness so that they can continue and excel in their education.

Created to support students who are experiencing a hardship that may make it difficult for them to continue with their education, the Student Emergency Fund helps provide funding for textbooks, fees and other education-related costs for qualifying students.

The Office of Military and Veteran Student Success (MVSS) was designed with the goal of providing student veterans with the tools, resources and support they need to earn their degrees. By making a gift to the MVSS, you鈥檒l help support the purchase of supplies and funding of programs and events for the center.
