Reasons to Give - Donor RecognitionStudents outside Arbury

  • Gift Clubs
  • Naming Opportunities  
  • Members of Saginaw Valley State University’s gift clubs understand the importance of private support and set the standard for others through the generosity of their gifts. Some have established endowments and some contribute toward a specific program, while others give to unrestricted funds. Making an unrestricted gift supports scholarships and other important programs where the need is greatest.
