AREAS TO SUPPORT

Morningside Fund

The Morningside Fund is the foundation of philanthropic support at Morningside University. This fund impacts every aspect of the Morningside experience by providing critical dollars for scholarships, academic and extracurricular programs, faculty development, and campus life. 

Endowment

A strong endowment is a key indicator of the quality and financial strength of an organization. Growing the endowment means more opportunities for scholarships, applied learning opportunities, research fellowships, programs, professorships, and department chairs that enhance Morningside’s mission and vision.

President’s Society

The President’s Society is Morningside University’s way of paying tribute and expressing gratitude to those individuals who have demonstrated an extraordinary commitment to the university by recognizing donors who contribute $1,000 or more during a fiscal year (June 1-May 31).

Morningside Madness

10 Years. 10 Hours. One Incredible Day – March 19, 2026

Get ready to celebrate 10 years of generosity, community, and impact with an exciting new twist! What began as a 36-hour marathon has transformed into a high-energy, 10-hour sprint fueled by momentum and Mside Pride. From our 10 a.m. kickoff until the finish line at 8 p.m., the day will be packed with excitement and shared purpose.

Your support powers the Morningside Fund, which fuels scholarships, academics, campus life, and more. This year, help us unlock challenge gifts for our six academic schools—Agriculture and Aviation, Arts and Sciences, Business, Education, Nursing, Visual & Performing Arts—plus Athletics and Student Life.

 How You Can Help:

Spread the word: Follow us on social media and share your favorite memories.

Mark your calendar: Be ready for the 10-hour dash on March 19.

Make a gift: Every donation directly supports students.
