Health and wellness are essential to thriving communities. Our Department of Kinesiology advances movement science, youth development, physical activity and health promotion while preparing Spartans who serve in schools, healthcare settings, research institutions and communities worldwide. Philanthropic support accelerates discovery and helps Spartans address global health challenges.  

Educator Preparation & the Spartan Teacher Promise

Talent Activated

Michigan—and our nation—faces a critical teacher shortage, and the MSU College of Education is poised to help. Through innovative teacher preparation, mentoring, community partnerships and expanded pathways into the profession, we are strengthening the educator workforce and supporting teachers throughout their careers. 

Graduate Education & Faculty Excellence 

Synergies Imagined

Graduate students and world-renowned faculty drive discoveries that shape educational policy, improve learning outcomes and influence practice around the globe. Your support provides fellowships, endowed professorships, research funding and innovative academic opportunities that allow scholars to pursue bold ideas and prepare the next generation of leaders. 

Community Partnerships & Educational Innovation

Synergies Imagined

From Detroit to Grand Rapids, including Lansing and communities across Michigan, our partnerships with schools, community organizations and businesses improve educational outcomes and create pathways that help students thrive. Your investment allows the college to respond to emerging needs while developing innovative solutions with lasting community impact. 

Student Scholarships & Success

Talent Activated

The demand for outstanding educators and health professionals has never been greater, yet financial barriers can prevent many students from pursuing their goals. Scholarship support helps students focus on learning and expands access to transformative educational experiences, including internships, clinical placements, research and international opportunities.

Ways to Give

Every gift—regardless of size—helps prepare future educators, researchers, counselors, school leaders and health professionals who will improve lives for generations to come. 

Online, Phone, Mail

Give online, by phone, or by mail. Make a one-time or recurring gift online, call to give by credit card, or send a check by mail.

Securities

Gifts of publicly traded securities that have increased in value may help you avoid capital gains taxes while also providing a charitable tax deduction.

Estate & Planned Gifts

Get started making a lasting impact at MSU by exploring the gift options available to support the College of Education. We can help you find a charitable plan that works for you and your family while advancing the future of Spartan students.

Additional Ways to Give

Explore additional ways to support MSU through wire transfers, payroll deductions, matching gifts, qualified charitable distributions or memorial and tribute gifts. These options provide flexible ways to make a meaningful impact on the College of Education and the students it serves.
 

Where the Need Is Greatest

Some of the most meaningful gifts are the most flexible.

Unrestricted support allows the College of Education to respond quickly to emerging opportunities, support innovative ideas and address the college's highest priorities as they arise. These investments provide immediate impact where it is needed most.

Whether you choose to make an annual gift, establish an endowed scholarship, invest in faculty excellence or innovative programs, or include the College of Education in your estate plans through a planned gift, your generosity creates opportunities that will benefit Spartan students for generations.

Our advancement team is here to help you identify the giving opportunity that best reflects your passions and philanthropic goals.

Together, we are preparing leaders. Advancing discovery. Transforming communities.
