About/FAQ
What is the Annual Fund?
The Annual Fund is the University campaign designed to secure unrestricted gifts to
support the needs of the University. With tuition costs only covering approximately
60%, the Annual Fund covers the other expenses necessary to provide a high quality
educational experience to outstanding students.
Where does the money go?
A crucial part of McKendree’s financial success, the Annual Fund supports:
• Student Scholarships
• Technology Enhancements
• Faculty Retention & Recruitment
• Facility Maintenance
• Library Resources
• Research
• And much more!
Can I pay in installments?
Yes, anyone interested in making a pledge can promise to give a predetermined amount before the end of his/her senior year
at McKendree. A gift is an outright one-time donation.
How do I get involved?
Any senior graduating in 2013 can participate in the SCG campaign. Whether you just
want to make a quick and easy gift, or if you want to become a part of the SCG Committee, all are welcome to contribute to the legacy of the Class of ’13.
We are now accepting seniors interested in joining the SCG 2013 Committee!
Still have questions?
