Fred and June Kummer’s vision continues to inspire our generous alumni and friends. Missouri S&T has concluded a record-setting year of fundraising, thanks to the transformative generosity of an extensive community of donors.
Philanthropic contributions for 2024 totaled over $94 million, making it one of the most successful fundraising years in the university’s history.
“We are immensely grateful for the increasing support our donors are providing,” says Tory Verkamp, vice chancellor of University Advancement. They recognize the difference a Missouri S&T education makes, and by investing in scholarships, faculty, state-of-the-art programs and capital improvements, are not only elevating but also expanding access to the S&T experience.”
The results for fiscal year 2024, which ended June 30, were only surpassed by S&T’s 2021 fundraising year that included a $300 million gift from the Kummers.
“Giving of this magnitude is a wonderful endorsement of our commitment to developing leaders equipped to solve for tomorrow,” says Chancellor Mo Dehghani. “Our donors are stakeholders in Missouri S&T’s success.”
