The Annual Fund supports 80% of Stetson students in the form of scholarships and financial assistance. The university greatly depends on the monetary support received through the Annual Fund to continue to produce quality students who excel locally, regionally, nationally, and internationally. Continued support from alumni, parents, faculty and staff, corporations and foundations, and friends is needed in order to foster in students the qualities of mind and heart that will prepare them to reach their full potential. Gifts of all amounts truly make a difference and help to keep Stetson a great institution that can change with the times, yet maintain its prestige and tradition.

Alumni support is extremely important to the Annual Fund as it is taken into consideration in the rankings produced by U.S. News and World Report. Alumni gift participation is an indicator of how alumni perceive their Stetson experience. You make a difference!

Giving to the Annual Fund is the best way to meet the immediate needs of Stetson University and its students. For more information, please contact the Office of Development at 386-822-7455.
