About

The MSU Texas Senior Giving Challenge is an opportunity to plant your roots by leaving a legacy on campus before graduation. Your gift will positively impact the next generations of students. By making a gift today, at any amount, you will be creating your own legacy at Midwestern State University while setting an example for others to also give back. 

Gifts

Gifts can be made to any part of the university you would like to make an impact. As the spring class of 2026, your goal is 120 donors! 

Any gift of $5 or greater will be counted toward the Senior Giving Challenge. To show our appreciation for your philanthropy, with a donation of an amount that is at least your graduation year (for example, 2026 graduates would donate $26) you will receive an MSU Texas Legacy Cord.

This year, your gift does even more.

When you give, you’ll select the college you’re graduating from to earn your credit on the Senior Leaderboard. The colleges with the most senior donors on the Giving Day leaderboard will unlock scholarships:

  • 1st Place: 2 × $500 scholarships
  • 2nd Place: 2 × $250 scholarships
  • 3rd Place: 3 × $100 scholarships

Scholarships will be awarded to student donors from those winning colleges, so every gift counts.

Your donation also counts toward Maroon & Gold Giving Day, showing the power of the Class of 2026 and launching your legacy as an alum.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why should I donate when I already pay tuition?

Tuition only covers a portion of the cost it takes to operate MSU Texas. By making your donation, you are helping support various aspects of campus including funding vital scholarships for our students. Giving back to your alma mater helps ensure Future Mustangs have the same experience you did.

Will my donation make a difference?

The percentage of alumni and students who give, regardless of the amount, impacts the university's rankings and boosts our overall giving percentage. In addition, last year gifts of $50 or less added up to $20,000 of support for the university!

What can I give to?

Whether it's in honor of a professor, a campus organization or your college, you can give anywhere on campus you would like to make an impact.
