Funding Priorities
Endowments
Endowments have long-term impact by providing annual support, in perpetuity. Endowment gifts can be designated for specific funding priorities, such as student scholarships or faculty research, or they can be unrestricted to use as a resource for the college’s current priorities. Please contact Diannah Eagle, Director of Advancement, for more information about endowment opportunities.

College Fund for Nursing
Annual gifts to the College Fund for Nursing sustain the college and support our mission. Gifts of any size, every year provide immediate, unrestricted resources to address current needs.
Dean’s Circle

Dean’s Circle donors provide annual support used by the dean to address top, strategic priorities. College of Nursing alumni and friends contributing $1,000 or more within the fiscal year (July 1 – June 30) will be recognized as members of the Dean’s Circle in the Vol Nurse magazine.
Student Support
Last year, through the generosity of alumni and friends, the College of Nursing awarded more than $200,000 in scholarships. Scholarship support opens a door of opportunity to tomorrow’s Vol Nurse and we need more nurses!
Interested in learning more about creating a lasting impact? Reach out to Diannah Eagle, Director of Advancement.
Faculty Support Challenge
Chancellor Donde Plowman has challenged the college’s alumni and friends to raise faculty support. New gifts and new five-year pledges beginning at $100,000 to establish endowments supporting faculty salaries will receive the immediate endowment income from the Office of the Chancellor before the endowment is fully funded. Create an immediate impact by choosing to support faculty.
