Annual Giving
Yearly gifts provide consistent funding for programs, projects, scholarships, and more. We are grateful that the Baylor Family walks alongside us to enhance our transformational Christian education we provide.
For Our Students…
When the Baylor Family gives, they help close the gap between the cost of tuition and what it takes to actually provide a well-rounded Baylor experience. Their generous support provides for current and future Bears and shows the world how much they value Baylor.
You may hear about opportunities to give through mail, email, social media, or even via text or call from our Baylor University Engagement Center.
