Giving to UCM

For nearly 150 years, UCM has thrived because of our faculty and staff's dedication. Every dollar given enhances the work you do here, as an extension of your efforts, while providing access to education for our community. Gifts to the Central Annual Fund support the greatest need at the University of Central Missouri. The Central Annual Fund provides emergency need-based scholarships to students, funds numerous Opportunity Grants to faculty and staff to enhance experiential learning for students, and supports the continued operations of UCM and the Alumni Foundation.

Payroll deduction is the most popular giving method. Other contribution methods include charitable gift annuities, marketable securities, in-kind gifts such as personal property, and bequests. Click the links below for the appropriate forms:
