Boldly advancing K-State

Foundation staff members work in close partnership with university administrators, deans and faculty to secure charitable contributions from individuals, corporations and foundations to support identified priorities for the university. Gifts received through the foundation fund undergraduate and graduate student scholarships, establish faculty chairs and professorships, provide college and departmental support, and enhance the campus infrastructure. After the money is raised, it must be prudently managed. This function is managed by foundation staff members who work under the guidance of an advisory committee of trustees.

 

Great Place to Work certified

KSU Foundation is the only certified institutionally related foundation in the country and one of only seven Great Place to Work certified organizations in Kansas. In the nonprofit space, KSU Foundation joins the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and the Kessler Foundation in this distinction.

 

Dedication to Inclusion & Diversity

The Foundation is committed to providing opportunities for all employees to succeed by creating an environment that is inclusive. We exceed the expectations of those we serve and improve the success of the organization by drawing strength from the diversity of our team. We seek to view each member of our staff not based solely upon cultural fit, but rather the unique characteristics and experiences each person adds to our workplace culture.
