Giving

The Simpson College experience is only possible with generous support from donors like you.

Do it for the Red and Gold. Do it for the future of Simpson.

Generous donor support helps Simpson College fulfill its educational mission in many ways.

Full-tuition scholarships, through programs like The $100K Simpson Promise allow us to provide a transformative educational experience to students who otherwise could not afford a college education.

Maintaining and enhancing our campus facilities, including technological upgrades to our labs, performance venues, and residence halls, ensures our students learn in modern spaces and live in a safe, comfortable environment.

For these reasons and more, your gift matters. Whether you’ve given before or are a first-time donor, we’re grateful for your support.

Passing on the Possibilities

“The athletic facilities, classrooms, and scholarship awards that made it possible for me to attend Simpson would not be possible without the College’s donors. As I yield the benefits of my Simpson experience it is a joy for my family to give back to Simpson to continue that tradition.”
