How to Give

Pledges

Establishing a pledge is a popular way to make a specific commitment to Mizzou that is to be paid over time. Pledges are particularly meaningful during the For All We Call Mizzou campaign.

The donor determines the pledge amount, the designation of the gift, the period of time over which the pledge will be paid and the frequency of payments; Mizzou will send a pledge reminder each time a payment is due.

Mizzou Payroll Deduction

Faculty, staff and retirees support MU's mission not only by sharing their talents. They also share their resources. Payroll deduction gifts are an easy way for faculty, staff and retirees to support teaching, service and research at Mizzou. Support from faculty, staff and retirees sets an excellent example for all alumni and friends of the University.

Contributions may be made to any area of the University. For a full list of available designations, please check the Fund Designations list.

To make a contribution to Mizzou through payroll deduction, please print and complete this form and send to Mizzou Gift Processing, 109 Reynolds Alumni Center, Columbia, MO 65211. Contributions through payroll deduction begin the first available pay date after the form is received and processed.

Credit Card

Mizzou accepts VISA, MasterCard, and Discover cards for payments of gifts and pledges.

To make a gift using a credit card, you can give online or download and print a pledge/gift form for either a one-time credit card payment or for authorization of automatic, regular gifts by credit card payment.

When you make a gift to Mizzou, you will receive an official receipt by mail. Please check the gift receipt carefully to verify the gift amount and the programs to which you designated your gift.

Planned Gifts

Planned gifts provide future support for the University and often may be made without any immediate financial impact to the donor. For detailed information regarding endowments, testamentary gifts and gifts that give back, visit the Gift Planning and Endowments section.
