Annual Giving

EKU depends on the generosity of alumni, faculty, staff, students, and friends to provide a quality education for thousands of present, and future students. Your gift of any amount can make a huge difference in the lives of our students on a daily basis. 


The Eastern Fund

Want to make an impact where it is needed most?

When you choose to give to the Eastern Fund, you are giving to the greatest need on campus. Because it is an unrestricted fund, the university can use these gifts to support the most pressing needs on campus and improve the experiences of students, faculty, and staff.


Your Gift, Your Choice!

We also want to offer you the opportunity to give to an area of campus you are most passionate about. Maybe that is your academic college or department. Perhaps you want to contribute to student scholarships. Or maybe there was a group or activity on campus that had a big impact on you. The giving options are endless, and each one can make a difference. Naming opportunities exist for both annual funds ($2,000 and above) and endowed gifts ($10,000 and above).

               

Consider Justin...

Justin is a Spanish Major and an active member of the Honors Program from Campbellsburg, KY. He spent a semester studying abroad in Granada, Spain, but was also one of only three students selected from EKU to spend a summer in Austria for the Salzburg Global Citizenship Program. Gifts like yours make an enriched experience like Justin's possible.

 

Cash gifts are considered transferred on the date they are received or electronically verified. Gifts made payable to the Eastern Kentucky University Foundation can hand-delivered to our offices in the Jones Building or mailed to:
