Under its mission statement, MSSU is charged with leading the cultural advancement of the community. Through the themed semester programs sponsored by the Institute of International Studies, numerous concerts, international films, and other cultural events have been provided for the community to enjoy ─ free of charge. Between our efforts and the classical music programming sponsored by Pro Musica, the four-state area is culturally rich.
But now, due to a statewide budget crisis, our International Mission enhancement money has eroded. We are asking for your help to create an endowment, to ensure that we are able to continue offering as many cultural programs as before. Any gift will help ─ $100, $250, $500, $1,000, or more.
The funds may also be used to help students study abroad, particularly those with high financial needs. Students who receive money from the International Mission Endowment Fund are asked to repay the amount after they graduate from MSSU and have started their career.
