Making Your Gift
As we look to the future, it is with a commitment to build upon
our University’s proud past. Murray State’s leadership is dedicated to extending and strengthening the tradition of educational quality and opportunity that has meant so much to so many people.
To succeed, we need your help.

Joining a Shared Effort
In recent years, the University has benefited from strong, broad-based, and growing support in the form of private gifts. By making your commitment to Hold Thy Banner High: the Campaign for the Students of Murray State University, you will join with fellow alumni and friends and with many faculty and staff members, parents, and graduating seniors in sustaining this remarkable momentum.
Providing a Margin of Excellence
In states across the nation, leading institutions have proven the power that private support can have in advancing the mission of public universities—and this has been true at Murray State as well. By augmenting Commonwealth dollars with private funding, our donors help the University achieve a level of excellence and affordability that would be impossible through either public or private funding alone. As appropriations from the Commonwealth of Kentucky continue to trend downward, the impact of support from our alumni and friends becomes more important than ever.
Making Your Commitment
The University welcomes gifts in many sizes and forms—from those made outright, to those payable over several years and those planned as part of estates. To discuss the form your gift might take and the priorities it will support, please contact our development staff.
