ΒιΆΉ΄«Γ½ City University is part of many peopleβs lives for many reasons. For employees, itβs their daily mission. For those from a church background or alumni who found community in Religious Life, itβs connected to beliefs, roots and relationships.
Giving by employees and to Religious Life are both important to ΒιΆΉ΄«Γ½βs vibrancy.
A high faculty and staff giving percentage shows the broader community that we believe in our studentsβ potential and the university is deserving of our financial investment. It is an invaluable signal to other potential donors.
Meanwhile, ΒιΆΉ΄«Γ½ has long been affiliated with the United Methodist Church, a church of βOpen Hearts, Open Minds and Open Doors.β We are committed to an education that honors our United Methodist history and tradition of scholarship and service.
Employee Giving
In 2023, 60% of employees gave back to ΒιΆΉ΄«Γ½ β a great showing of support. Faculty and staff participation plays a pivotal role in securing grant funding and supporting the university's overall reputation. As you may know, ΒιΆΉ΄«Γ½ does not receive government support, and tuition does not cover the entire cost to educate a student. Private gifts help make up the difference, and gifts of any size make a meaningful impact.
University-Church Relations
Gifts to University-Church Relations support Religious Life and the Campus Ministry Fund. Highlights of Religious Life at ΒιΆΉ΄«Γ½ include chapel services on Thursdays, the Wesley Center campus Christian ministry, and a variety of student-run religious organizations.
Thank you for supporting ΒιΆΉ΄«Γ½ City University! Your gifts open doors and create opportunities for students.
