What is annual giving?
Annual giving is an essential part of the UMN Morris philanthropic tradition. Through annual giving our loyal donors make an immediate impact, supporting areas of importance to them. UMN Morris alumni and friends give back at rates that lead the University System. Our annual donors are the base on which all other philanthropy depends. Be a part of this vital mission and give today.
