To succeed in a campaign like this, a variety of gifts are needed, whether they be cash, securities, property, crypto-currency, land or testamentary gifts. Did you know you can make provision in your will or living trust to transfer a gift to Union after your death? Testamentary gifts are a significant way to provide long-term support for the university, its mission, and its students. Our Office of Institutional Advancement will be happy to work with you to help you achieve your giving goals.
Union University celebrated its bicentennial during the 2022-2023 academic year. That celebration was a special time in the history of the university when we looked back to what God had done in Union's past and looked forward with anticipation to what He will do in Union's future.
Psalm 16:6 say, "The lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; indeed, I have a beautiful inheritance." Union University does indeed have a beautiful inheritance. The Lord in His kindness has richly poured out blessing after blessing upon Union over the last two centuries. As we reflect on God's goodness to us, and as we dream about what God can and will do through Union in the years ahead, our hope is that He will move the hearts of people during this pivotal moment in Union's history to partner with us and help sustain the mission of Union in the days to come.
Our alumni are an important component to this campaign's success. For us to achieve our goals, for us to help bolster Union's financial base and set the university up for continued success into its third century, we will need our alumni to rally around their alma mater and make Union a stronger university — a university that can continue to provide wave upon wave of students committed to Christ and His kingdom.
Prayer will be pivotal for this campaign to succeed. We want and need God's people to join us in asking for the Lord to bless the work of our hands, and to raise up the donors and friends we need to help us meet this ambitious goal.
For 200 years, God has raised up friends of Union University to support its Christ-Centered mission. Today, we are asking Him to do so again — and we are asking you to join with us in this effort.Be a partner with Union in launching the university into its third century with energy and vigor. Join with us in this exciting venture that will strengthen and bolster an institution that people trust to remain faithful to its biblical mission. Consider the countless lives God will transform by their encounter with Union University — either directly through the students who learn here, or indirectly through the lives our alumni touch.
If you invest in Union University, you will help strengthen the institution and provide a more secure, more vibrant Christian education for students for years to come. Through your support, the ripples of a Union education will continue to reach far and wide, to every corner of the world. Through your support, Union University can be equipped for continued growth and success. And 100 years from now, when the university marks its tricentennial, we can have confidence that Union will look back on this chapter of its history and celebrate the generosity of friends like you, who demonstrate the continued faithfulness and goodness of God.
