Honorary Gifts Honorary gifts celebrate an individual’s connection to OSU. Many alumni groups and former students choose to create a scholarship or professorship in honor of a respected mentor or teacher, often in celebration of their retirement. Family members and friends may establish a gift in honor of a loved one’s education, career or association with Oklahoma State University. OSU alumni classes inspire future generations of students by establishing scholarships named for their graduation year. The individual for whom the gift is named will receive a list of contributors to the fund, and a list of recipients who benefit from their gift.
Memorial Gifts Memorial gifts ensure a person’s legacy will endure at Oklahoma State University. The OSU Foundation is honored to help families establish opportunities to pay tribute to their loved one. Family members, friends and even strangers may contribute to a memorial fund following the death of a loved one. The individual’s family often chooses to establish a memorial scholarship or faculty position to celebrate his or her life and love of OSU. Doing so guarantees that future generations of Cowboys will hear this individuals story and be inspired by their passion for Oklahoma State. The OSU Foundation will provide the family with a list of contributors to the memorial fund as well as a list of the recipients of the scholarship, if applicable.
If you have questions about making a gift in memory or in honor of someone, please contact the office of Donor Relations (800) 622-4678 or e-mail mshaw@OSUgiving.com.
