Where to Give
Advancement Areas
We believe God has given Southern Adventist University a mission.
We are called to be a learning community that nurtures students in becoming more like Christ. Your gift now will go to work right away helping provide outstanding education and the resources to help them excel.
If you believe in the value that Southern Adventist University provides, we encourage you to partner with us for a one-time or ongoing gift.
There are a variety of ways you can give that each have a unique impact on our students.
Find out what impact your gifts can have on students’ lives here at Southern.
Our Annual Giving initiatives provide opportunities to make a difference in the lives of our students.
EVENTS
Each year, we hold several events for Southern's alumni and friends to learn about
special projects and partner with us in furthering our mission. Homecoming is our
largest gathering!
