OSU Sailing is looking for support to help maintain our fleet of sailboats, make some needed dock repairs, and fund OSU students to enter regattas and races!
OSU Sailing is looking for support to help maintain our fleet of sailboats, make some needed dock repairs, and fund OSU students to enter regattas and races! OSU Sailing Club In the early 2000's, the OSU Sailing Club was extremely active in sailing competitions and regattas across the region, bringing home trophies and and amazing memories back to Lake Carl Blackwell. With your support, we plan to grow once again to a competing club. All money raised by this campaign will go directly to maintaining our fleet, refurbishing our dock, and to provide resources for students to compete at a higher level. Together, we can ensure that the OSU Sailing Club continues to grow as a source of pride for our university and community. Why a Sailing Club Matters at OSU While Oklahoma may be landlocked, the skills and experiences gained on the water translate far beyond sailing. Our team gives students the opportunity to: Represent OSU at regional and national competitions.. Create lifelong friendships and networks, strengthening the Cowboy family both on and off the water. Experience adventure and competition, fostering a healthy, active lifestyle. Benefits to the Community The OSU Sailing Club is a resource for more than just its members. We allow not just OSU students, faculty, and staff to join, but also local Stillwater community members who have an interest in sailing. By maintaining an active program, we: Enhance access to Lake Carl Blackwell, bringing revenue and awareness to lakefront areas through training, races and events. Offer volunteer opportunities and youth outreach. Attract visitors to Stillwater and surrounding communities when hosting regattas and team events. Promote OSU pride, showing that our university excels not only on the field but also on the water. How Your Donation Will Be Used Every dollar raised directly supports our students and facilities: Fleet maintenance and repairs, ensuring our boats are safe, reliable, and competition-ready. Dock refurbishment, improving accessibility and creating a lasting resource for the team and community. Competition support, helping dedicated students travel to races and regattas to represent OSU on a larger stage. Construction of a new Sailing Club boathouse. Just this year we have had to move out of our Lake Carl Blackwell home for 30+ years and are in need of a more permanent long term boathouse on the lake. Join Us on This Journey With your generosity, we can keep OSU’s sailing tradition alive and thriving. By investing in our team, you’re not just funding boats and docks — you’re empowering students, strengthening our community, and building a legacy that will inspire generations to come. We appreciate your consideration! Go Pokes! Go Sailing! Gifts to this project through the OSU Foundation, a 501(c)(3) organization, are tax deductible as allowed by law.

Passport for Pokes
Passport for Pokes
The OSU Center for Global Learning team is looking for support to fully fund passports for students so they can achieve their dream of going abroad. Go Pokes!
The OSU Center for Global Learning team is looking for support to fully fund passports for students so they can achieve their dream of going abroad. Go Pokes! OSU Center for Global Learning How You Can Help OSU Students! The OSU Center for Global Learning (Study Abroad) is seeking your support to fully reimburse students for the cost of their first passport. Our goal is to fund 30 or more OSU students each year, helping them take the first step toward studying abroad and opening doors to future international travel opportunities after graduation. For those of you who have been fortunate to study abroad, I'm sure you will agree that there is nothing quite like the sights, sounds, smells, and conversations of a foreign land to help round out an education. It’s the kind of hands-on learning that is impossible to absorb through books, videos, or even computers. As author Mark Patterson wrote, “The best education you will ever get is traveling. Nothing teaches you more than exploring the world and accumulating experiences”. Why is Having a Passport Critical? 1. Required for Study Abroad Programs A valid passport is mandatory to participate in any study abroad program. Many programs require students to submit passport information months in advance, so delays in obtaining one can prevent participation. Since processing times can take 8–10 weeks or longer, not having a passport early can be a barrier to last-minute opportunities. 2. Enables Global Learning and Travel Travel is a major part of personal and professional growth. Having a passport allows students to explore new cultures, practice language skills, and gain experiences that make them more adaptable and culturally aware. It gives students the freedom to seize spontaneous travel opportunities, like service trips, conferences, or faculty-led programs. 3. Boosts Career Readiness Many careers — especially in business, engineering, healthcare, hospitality, and government — involve international work or travel. Employers value candidates who have global experience, and having a passport signals readiness for international internships or job assignments. Even after graduation, a passport is essential for attending international interviews or conferences. 4. Reduces Last-Minute Stress Without a passport, students may miss out on scholarships or programs that come up unexpectedly. Having one ahead of time eliminates the stress of scrambling during tight deadlines or dealing with expedited processing fees. Who We Are and What We Do? The Center for Global Learning is OSU students’ one-stop shop for exploring the hundreds of opportunities available to study abroad, intern abroad, or participate in a domestic exchange. With programs designed for every major and interest, our long-term goal is to send 3,000 students abroad each year. Many of our programs are surprisingly affordable—some even cost less than a semester in Stillwater. However, students and their families often face additional expenses, such as airfare, passports, and international health insurance, which can make studying abroad feel out of reach. Through scholarships and grants like the Gerry Auel Passport Grant, we work to partially or fully cover these costs, ensuring that study abroad is accessible to any OSU student who wants to experience life in another country. With the support of generous donors like you, students gain life-changing experiences, build global networks, and enhance their career opportunities through international learning and internships. We appreciate your consideration! Go Pokes! Go Abroad! Gifts to this project through the OSU Foundation, a 501(c)(3) organization, are tax deductible as allowed by law. If you have questions about your gift, please contact the OSU Foundation at 800.622.4678.

Women's Club Basketball
Women's Club Basketball
We are a club sport that likes to have fun and stay active. We enjoy getting to travel to other states to play competitive basketball.
We are a club sport that likes to have fun and stay active. We enjoy getting to travel to other states to play competitive basketball. Women's Club Basketball Welcome! We are so glad to have you here to learn a little bit about us. The Women's Club Basketball team is a campus organization open to all students that is made to bring women together with a passion for basketball. We were established just four years ago, in 2021, and are working hard everyday to build our name and program. What we do: Each week, our team members have two practices that are two hours each. We have extremely high attendance rates and strive to make it to every practice even through busy school and work schedules. This fall, we will travel to UNT and TCU in Texas for tournaments and plan to host a tournament in mid-November. We can't wait to host again, as it was a success last year. Our main season, however, is in the spring. We will travel about 4 times throughout February and March. Last year, we traveled to Texas twice, along with Missouri, and Colorado. How You Can Help: By donating to our club, you can help our team continue to grow. It is extremely expensive to travel for every game we play. Each weekend, we must pay to fill our tanks with gas, stay in hotel rooms, cover tournament entry fees, and yearly league fees. There are food costs, which players are responsible for independently. This does not mention the outside costs like uniforms, team warm-ups. By graciously donating to our team, you allow us to keep player dues low. Our current dues are $50 per travel player, per semester. Although this is as low as we can make dues and stay a functioning club, this price is a barrier for many women to access our club. We do our best to make the team a financially inclusive experience and you have the opportunity to help us achieve that goal. Thank you for your consideration to help our team!

Warp Speed Racing (OSU-Tulsa FSAE)
Warp Speed Racing (OSU-Tulsa FSAE)
At Warp Speed Racing we design, manufacture, test, and compete internationally with an internal combustion, open-cockpit, open-wheel performance vehicle. FSAE.
At Warp Speed Racing we design, manufacture, test, and compete internationally with an internal combustion, open-cockpit, open-wheel performance vehicle. FSAE. Jonathan Ford Who we areWarp Speed Racing is a campus organization open to all students and OSU-Tulsa's first Formula SAE team. Founded in Spring 2026, we are a student-led organization open to all students that designs, manufactures, and races an open-wheel performance vehicle. Engineering, fabrication, testing, and business operations are run by students, from the first sketch to the final lap. What Formula SAE isFormula SAE, run by SAE International, is one of the most demanding collegiate engineering competitions in the world. University teams build a race car to a nearly 150-page technical rulebook, then compete for 1,000 points. A third of the score is earned before the car moves, in front of industry judges evaluating design, cost and manufacturing, and business presentation. The rest is earned on track in acceleration, skid pad, autocross, endurance, and efficiency. No car competes until it passes a rigorous technical and safety inspection. How we operateWarp Speed Racing is structured like an engineering firm. Executive officers run finance, sponsorship, and operations. Technical officers lead the vehicle's subsystems: chassis, suspension, powertrain, electronics, and aerodynamics. Every design decision is documented, reviewed, and justified against the rules and the budget, the same way judges will evaluate it at competition. Where we areSince our founding, we have defined the vehicle, acquired a reference chassis from UTA, one of the top Formula SAE programs in the world, selected and purchased ur first power unit, and established a workshop. In addition, we have formed our SAE collegiate chapter, partnered with the OSU Foundation, and are completing registration for competition. Next, we lock the design, manufacture the chassis, and build and test the car. Our goalCompete at Formula SAE Michigan in Spring 2027, and establish OSU-Tulsa as a serious program in the series from our first entry. Why nowThe competition date does not move. Parts must be ordered, machined, and assembled on a fixed timeline, and every week of manufacturing depends on funding in place before it starts. Gifts made early in the build season have the greatest effect on whether the car reaches the start line on time and ready to compete. What your gift funds Vehicle components and materials, including chassis tubing, suspension, powertrain, brakes, and tires. Fabrication tools and equipment for building the car in-house. Engineering software for design, simulation, and analysis. Competition costs, including event registration, transport, and travel. Why it mattersFormula SAE graduates enter industry having designed, built, tested, and defended a real vehicle under deadline. That experience cannot be replicated in a classroom, and employers in automotive, aerospace, energy, and manufacturing recruit for it directly. Your support puts that experience within reach of OSU-Tulsa students and puts OSU-Tulsa on the grid.

The El Rancho Schoolhouse Expansion Project aims to create a larger, safer space for students as the community continues to grow. Engineers Without Borders Introducing the Schoolhouse Project Engineers Without Borders is a campus organization open to all students. El Rancho is working to expand its schoolhouse so it can better serve the 60 families in the community. The current building can only accommodate 28 families with 33 students, limiting enrollment and classroom space. The community has asked the Oklahoma State University chapter of Engineers Without Borders to help design an extension that will support future growth and provide additional room for educational activities. Our team recently traveled to El Rancho to complete the initial assessment phase. During this trip, we gathered essential information including land measurements, site conditions, community input, and other data needed to begin design work. With this foundation in place, we are now in the early stages of developing a proposed design for the new schoolhouse addition. All donations directly support project materials, local labor, and travel expenses for future design and implementation phases. We are grateful for your continued support as we work with El Rancho to create a stronger educational environment for its students. Community Impact Here at Home Engineers Without Borders is a campus organization open to all students. Beyond our international work, Engineers Without Borders–OSU is deeply committed to serving the Stillwater community. Our chapter regularly volunteers with organizations such as Habitat for Humanity, Payne County Youth Services, and Into the Streets, contributing to projects that support local families, youth programs, and community development. These partnerships allow our members to apply engineering skills close to home while strengthening the community we’re proud to be part of. As we grow, we look forward to expanding our local outreach and continuing to build meaningful connections throughout Stillwater. Follow our Instagram and LinkedIn for club updates and activities.

Travel for Undergraduate Research in the Humanities and Arts
Travel for Undergraduate Research in the Humanities and Arts
This grant program allows undergraduates in the arts and humanities to travel to present their research at national conferences or to conduct original research.
This grant program allows undergraduates in the arts and humanities to travel to present their research at national conferences or to conduct original research. Center for the Humanities Help support undergraduate researchers in the Humanities and Arts! This grant program, first offered in Spring 2025, will allow undergraduates in the arts and humanities to travel to present their research at national conferences or to conduct original research at museums, libraries, and other archives. Our goal is to fund the travel of five undergraduate researchers each spring, increasing their ability to take advantage of such opportunities. This program will improve the visibility of research in the humanities and arts both on campus and nationally, and ensure greater involvement by undergraduate researchers from these vital and important disciplines. The benefits of such participation are significant, for both OSU and the students themselves. Students benefit from participating in such undergraduate research programs, building confidence and developing many skills that contribute to career readiness. They also raise the profile of OSU creative research when they attend such conferences. Unfortunately, the humanities and arts are underrepresented in campus-wide research programs for undergraduates such as the Freshmen Research Scholars and Wentz Research Scholars programs, which tend to be dominated by STEM fields. This new funding program would encourage more students in these less visible fields to participate in undergraduate research. While there are some small awards at OSU that cover conference fees and other expenses, those funds do not fully cover such trips, requiring students to seek out multiple sources of funding or pay out of pocket. We want to prevent a situation in which a student cannot take advantage of an opportunity due to lack of funds. OSU strongly encourages student researchers to participate in conferences at the national level; we believe that if this is truly a priority, such travel must be better supported. We want to celebrate the amazing contributions the humanities and arts make to improving the world, and to involve eager undergraduates in that important endeavor! The Center for the Humanities is a campus organization open to all students.

Support the 2027 Summer GEO-REx
Support the 2027 Summer GEO-REx
Help spread the joy of geoscience by funding a summer geoscience research experience for high school students across Oklahoma.
Help spread the joy of geoscience by funding a summer geoscience research experience for high school students across Oklahoma. The GEO-REx Team OUR GOAL: To raise funds to support the Geoscience Research Experience (GEO-REx), a four-day summer experience that introduces geoscience to high school students, and has proven to be a useful avenue for recruiting talented students to be geology majors. WHY: The Boone Pickens School of Geology (BPSoG) prepares students to effectively and meaningfully contribute towards the future of energy and preserving our environment, in line with the Cowboy Code and OSU's land grant mission, pillars, and values. The GEO-REx program is an opportunity to introduce high school students to the geosciences, including research, careers, and their relevance to sustainability, energy, and environmental topics. This program is organized and run by the GEO-REx Team, which is a campus organization open to all students, faculty and staff. The GEO-REx program is a crucial component of the BPSoG outreach effort to develop and encourage the next generation of geoscientists. The GEO-REx Program: The GEO-REx program provides opportunities for student participants to engage in field trips and workshops designed to target different aspects of the geosciences, including geophysics, energy, water resources, environmental studies, and more, led by BPSoG faculty and assisted by graduate students. The students will also participate in a research project mentored by BPSoG faculty and graduate students, including collecting samples, utilizing cutting-edge lab equipment and analytical software programs, and obtaining their own data. These research experiences will then be presented at the end of GEO-REx to their families, friends, and donors. Additionally, student participants have the option to continue their research project throughout the school year, submitting results to their local science fair, or just listing the project on their college applications. The GEO-REx program is specifically created as an opportunity available to any high school student in Oklahoma, though we accept students from other states as well. For more information about the camp, visit the GEO-REx webpage. SUPPORT OUR GOAL: Previous GEO-REx offerings have had maximum student enrollment, including out-of-state high school students, and overall, we continue to receive very positive feedback from participants and their parents. The funds raised will go towards supporting the continuation of the GEO-REx program, ensuring student participants can attend at minimal cost. The funds raised will help cover room and board in an OSU dorm building, meals, research materials, and geology swag costs for approximately 25 student attendees. To learn more about how GEO-REx utilizes donations, see the STATE Magazine article about our PhilanthroPete campaigns. Any amount, no matter how small, will help us towards our goal! THANK YOU: Thank you for your generosity in supporting GEO-REx. We are excited to have your support, and are looking forward to another successful GEO-REx program in Summer 2027. Thank you for your support - go Pokes!

Samantha Rengstorf Home of the Flying Cowgirls Oklahoma State University’s Chapter of Women in Aviation International (WAI), The Home of the Flying Cowgirls, aspires to Encourage, Empower, and Educate our student membership. Our Mission: OSU-WAI is campus organization open to all students that is committed to building relationships and getting women involved in aviation through community outreach, social events, and networking opportunities. As a student organization, we are reliant on donors to help us Dream as Big as the Sky. What do we do? Community Outreach Whether it's through K-5 school programs, volunteering around Stillwater, or at the WAI annual Girls in Aviation Day events, OSU-WIA aims to diversify the aviation industry, and is dedicated to serving the local aviation community. Networking As emerging professionals, college is a pivotal time in our careers to build relationships and make connections in aviation, as the industry places importance on both who you are, and who you know. Networking is the first core value of our Chapter, and we actively foster it through mentoring, participating in the annual WAI Conference, and hosting guest speakers from the aviation industry in our monthly meetings. Social Events Not only do we provide workshops for educational and professional development, but we love to just have FUN! OSU-WIA values the history and culture of aviation, and strives to foster an inclusive community for all aviation enthusiasts alike. The Conference - A Breakdown What & Why A key aspect of being involved with OSU-WIA is attending the annual Women in Aviation International Conference. The Conference offers a wealth of opportunities, including educational and professional development seminars, workshops, scholarships, keynote speakers, the WAI Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony, industry briefings, and an exhibit hall full of aviation industry professionals waiting to connect with our members. It provides unmatched chances for professional growth and networking that extends far beyond the classroom and the flight deck. We as an official chapter of WAI are committed to increasing the 6% industry average of women in the aviation industry, and for many, the International Conference is where that journey begins. The Cost With next year's WAI Conference location being in Savannah, Georgia, it costs, at minimum, $1,000 for each student to attend. After budgeting for Conference registration, travel, lodging, food, and other miscellaneous travel expenses, this exceeds the financial capabilities of our young WAI Chapter. The Home of the Flying Cowgirls was officially marked as a collegiate chapter and formally recognized by WAI in 2020. While we have worked hard over past years to build our chapter and alumni network, we need your help getting our members to the International Conference! OSU-WIA sincerely thanks every donor for their help and contribution, and we wish you all blue skies and tailwinds. Go Pokes!

OSU Polo Club
OSU Polo Club
The OSU Polo Club is raising funds to support our horses, equipment, and travel, as well as opportunities for students to learn and compete in polo.
The OSU Polo Club is raising funds to support our horses, equipment, and travel, as well as opportunities for students to learn and compete in polo. OSU Polo Club The OSU Polo Club is built on two things: our horses and our students. OSU Polo Club is a campus organization open to all students. Everyday our club works hard to care for the horses that make polo possible, while also creating an environment where students can learn, compete, and grow. Because we are a student-led program, donor support is what allows us to keep our horses healthy, maintain safe equipment, and travel to tournaments where our riders get to represent OSU. Your support helps expand what the members of OSU Polo Club can experience. Many members join with little or no riding experience; polo becomes their first real connection to horsemanship and teamwork. Donations help us provide training, cover travel costs, and keep our horses in proper condition so that our members can take part in a sport that would otherwise be out of reach. Every contribution, large or small, helps to create real opportunities. Donations keep our horses cared for, strengthen our program, and open the door for more students of OSU to step into the arena. Thank you for supporting the OSU Polo Club and helping us continue a tradition that means so much to our members.

The OKSTATE Soil Judging Team is made up of dedicated students who share a passion for analyzing the soil to determine the best way to utilize it! The OKSTATE Soils Judging Team The Oklahoma State University Soil Judging Team is a campus organization open to all students. We are raising $3,000 to help our team travel to Kingsville, Texas, for this year’s regional soil judging contest. During the competition, we are challenged to analyze pre-dug soil pits to evaluate soil characteristics and determine the best ways to utilize and manage the land. Soil judging gives us the opportunity to take what we learn in the classroom and apply it in the field, developing skills that are valuable in future agricultural careers, natural resources, and land management. Last fall, our team proudly won the regional contest, and we are excited for the opportunity to represent OSU again at the regional level. Competing allows us to challenge ourselves, learn from students and coaches from other universities, and gain experience with a wide variety of soils. Your support will help us gain valuable hands-on experience while expanding our knowledge of soils and land management. Funds raised will help cover lodging, meals, registration fees, travel expenses, van rentals, and fuel while we are away for a full week. Your support helps make this opportunity possible for our team. Every contribution, large or small, brings us one step closer to Kingsville and helps us continue developing the knowledge and skills needed to make informed decisions about our most valuable natural resource: SOIL! We are grateful for the support of our OSU community, alumni, friends, family, and everyone who believes in investing in the next generation of agricultural students. Thank you for supporting the OSU Soil Judging Team!

Model UN at OSU exists to reach students interested in international affairs and assist them in developing skills in public speaking, debate, and collaboration. Model UN @ OSU Our Big Events: CONFERENCES! Model United Nations at Oklahoma State University exists to bring global awareness to students and provide a vehicle for honing their public speaking and professional skills. Students attend simulation competitions where they become UN delegates for countries around the globe in a "mock United Nations". In the simulation environment, students get the chance to practice diplomacy skills, network with their peers, and expand their knowledge of global affairs. Our team is excited to join Midwest Model United Nations again this year. We want to continue taking new and returning students each year because it is an incredibly valuable opportunity to promote global learning and develop better global citizens. Additionally, going to national and international competitions is a dream of our organization's members. We also attend smaller conferences closer to home throughout the school year, and students have paid out of pocket for some of these. We want to reward our students who are willing to represent OSU at these competitions by relieving the financial burden. Having a presence at these competitions elevates the OSU brand and reputation. Our Smaller, but Impactful Events: Campus Simulations, Discussions, and FUN Events: Each semester, we put on simulations, discussions, and new types of events on campus. This year we had an MUN FIFA World Cup-themed escape room! Our club promotes global debate and educates students on campus about new and developing issues around the world. It provides an outlet to discuss and share global perspectives while also listening to others. Everything that Model UN does and represents promotes global engagement and learning! We love sharing our perspectives and hearing others'. Will you be a part of facilitating these needed conversations at Oklahoma State University and throughout our community? Thank you for considering a donation. OSU Model UN is a campus organization open to all students.

Support OSU Men’s Club Volleyball
Support OSU Men’s Club Volleyball Christopher Malone HELP OSU MEN’S CLUB VOLLEYBALL TAKE THE COURT OSU Men’s Club Volleyball is a campus organization open to all students and is fundraising to support our student-athletes and give our team the opportunity to compete, grow, and represent Oklahoma State University both on and off the court. As a student-run organization, our team works hard to make our season possible, but the costs of operating a competitive club volleyball program can add up quickly. Between tournament registration, travel, lodging, equipment, uniforms, and other team expenses, the financial commitment can become a significant challenge for our players. Fundraising allows us to offset these costs and make competitive club volleyball more accessible to our members. More importantly, your support helps create an environment where our players can focus on improving their skills, competing at a high level, building relationships with their teammates, and making the most of their college experience. Every contribution, no matter the size, plays a role in helping our team continue to grow and compete as we represent OSU. WHERE YOUR DONATION GOES Funds raised through this campaign will directly support the expenses that allow OSU Men’s Club Volleyball to practice and compete throughout the season. Donations will help cover tournament entry fees, transportation, hotels and other travel expenses, uniforms, volleyballs, training and practice equipment, athletic supplies, and additional costs associated with running our team. These expenses are essential to giving our players the opportunity to travel to tournaments and compete against other collegiate club programs from across the region and beyond. Your donation can help reduce the amount each player has to pay out of pocket, allowing more students to participate regardless of their financial circumstances. Beyond the financial impact, your support is an investment in our team and the students who make this program possible. By donating, you are helping OSU Men’s Club Volleyball continue to compete, develop as athletes and teammates, represent Oklahoma State with pride, and build a program that future generations of Cowboys can be proud to be a part of. YOUR SUPPORT MAKES A DIFFERENCE We can't do this without the support of our community, friends, family, alumni, and fellow Cowboys. If you are able, please consider making a donation today. Whether you give $10, $25, $50, $100, or whatever amount you can, your contribution directly helps our players get on the court and gives our team more opportunities to compete. Every dollar brings us closer to our fundraising goal and helps take some of the financial burden off our players. Please consider donating today and helping OSU Men’s Club Volleyball have its best season yet. Your generosity doesn't just help pay for a tournament or a hotel room—it helps give college students the opportunity to compete for something they love, represent Oklahoma State, and be part of a team they will remember long after graduation. Thank you for believing in our team, investing in our players, and helping us continue to represent the Cowboys on the court. Go Pokes!

Help the horn studio travel to workshops and presentations in Kansas and Texas! Okstate Horn Studio Hello everyone! Every year we are excited to perform not only in Stillwater, but anywhere we can share our music! This includes attending and performing at our regional Mid-South Horn Workshop and taking other roadtrips to teach and to play with students in high schools and middle schools in Oklahoma and Texas. These trips require us to book hotels, pay registrations, rent vehicles, and pay for gas for several days. Whether it is our octet or full 22-member studio, these costs add up and we would love your help! Every experience outside our school helps the students see how big our horn world is and how they can affect change in the best way with music. We have seen how students in the public schools are excited after we perform and the directors are all so welcoming. The studio if full of future performers and educators and getting the opportunity to play music with and for others is an experience I would love all our students to have. This year we have decided to have a theme and we are preparing rock and roll and pop songs almost exclusively! We have songs by Journey, Bon Jovi, Billy Joel, Kansas, and many more! With your help, we hope these songs will connect more people and bring some new fans to the wonderful world of HORN!

We are the NAHJ, OSU student chapter and we are raising money to send our students to the national NAHJ conference in Minneapolis in August 2027. NAHJ OSU We are the National Association of Hispanic Journalists student chapter at OSU, and we are raising money to send our students to the national NAHJ conference in Minneapolis in August 2027. Members attend sessions to learn more about the industry, in a way it can’t be offered in the classroom, and network with professionals to grow, get feedback, and meet potential mentors. Our goal is to continue to support attendance for our students FREE of cost! Any donation, no matter how big or small, helps us get closer to that goal in 2027. As part of our professional development, we have started to expand our reporting to reach Spanish speakers in the Stillwater community. Since many Hispanics get their news on social media, we want to reach that audience by offering both English and Spanish news coverage. As student journalists, we have been producing bilingual news content on social media to better inform our community and provide news coverage for underrepresented groups. The National Association of Hispanic Journalists at OSU is a campus organization open to all students. Data Center Protest: https://www.instagram.com/p/Dc4uRelo26-/ Payne County Fair: https://www.instagram.com/p/DchbnQ7OTyj/ We hope to showcase our work as journalists at OSU in a panel at the NAHJ conference. We want to show student journalists that you don’t need a big studio or equipment to inform your community and reach your audience. Student Testimonials Hi, my name is Miranda Martinez and I am the president of NAHJ at OSU. I’m a junior majoring in multimedia journalism. I attended the NAHJ conference in Chicago and New Orleans, which were some of the best experiences I’ve had during my time at OSU. Being surrounded by people who look like me and share the same culture was so fulfilling. During the conference, I worked on networking, building my skills, and embracing my culture. Since attending the conference, my networking skills and confidence have improved. I made lifelong friendships in New Orleans, and I would not have met them if I didn’t go to the conference. I feel like I can not only have a spot at the table, but I also deserve a spot. I would love to return to the conference this summer to meet more people! My experience and skills are growing by the day, and I would love to show recruiters what I can do. Hi, my name is Ana Arias, and I am a first-generation Hispanic woman majoring in sports media. Being not only a member of NAHJ but also an officer serving as the secretary has provided me with the perfect platform to hone my skills as a journalist and to strengthen the representation and community of our Spanish speakers as a Hispanic woman going into sports. During the conference, I was able to win a one-on-one session with Tony Martinez, on-air broadcasting coach, where I received feedback that I wouldn't have in an everyday classroom situation. I was able to bring in my skillset from before being at OSU, but the testimony is what I will be able to leave with after my time in NAHJ. Thank you for your support! NAHJ OSU

Help OSU’s Business Management Association connect students with career opportunities through company visits, professional workshops, and consulting experiences
OSU, Oklahoma State University, management, BMA, Business Management Association, Spears School of Business, student leadership, career development, consulting Help OSU’s Business Management Association connect students with career opportunities through company visits, professional workshops, and consulting experiences Business Management Mission Management is a new initiative within the Business Management Association designed to take student learning beyond the classroom and into real business situations. At the center of Mission Management is our new Consulting Division, led by our Vice President of Consulting and Director of Consulting. This division allows students to work through real-world business challenges, collaborate in teams, develop strategic solutions, and gain hands-on consulting experience while still in college. Mission Management was created with a simple goal: to allow students to do more than learn about business and to actually practice it. Through consulting projects, case studies, workshops, competitions, and professional mentorship, students will be challenged to think critically, communicate effectively, and approach problems the way they would in a professional environment. Our goal is to create experiences that build both the technical skills and confidence students need to succeed after graduation. The Consulting Division will also create opportunities for students to work with businesses and professionals, allowing members to gain exposure to different industries and understand what it is really like to solve problems for a client. From developing recommendations to presenting solutions, Mission Management is designed to give students a genuine look into the world of consulting and business strategy. As this initiative grows, our vision is to expand the number of consulting projects, partnerships, competitions, and professional opportunities available to our members. We want Mission Management to become a space where students can challenge themselves, discover their strengths, build their resumes, and form relationships with both their peers and business professionals. Mission Management is more than another student organization initiative. It is an opportunity to bridge the gap between the classroom and the professional world, giving students a mission, a team, and a real problem to solve. The Business Management Association is a campus organization open to all students.

Help remove financial barriers to study abroad, giving OSU students opportunities to experience new cultures, broaden perspectives, and grow as global leaders.
Hargis Leadership Institute, Study abroad, scholarships, global learning, Cowboys, leadership development, cultural experiences, OSU, student success, Go Pokes, educational opportunity Help remove financial barriers to study abroad, giving OSU students opportunities to experience new cultures, broaden perspectives, and grow as global leaders. Send a Cowboy Abroad Turn "I wish I could" into I'm going." Open a Door. Change a World. HLI | Global Learning Study abroad can be one of the most transformative experiences of a student’s college journey. It takes learning beyond the classroom, introducing students to new cultures, perspectives, communities, and ways of thinking. These experiences can build confidence, independence, cultural awareness, and leadership skills that students carry with them long after they return home. But for many Oklahoma State University students, the opportunity to study abroad can feel out of reach due to cost. Send a Cowboy Abroad is a fundraising initiative for our Global Learning Experience Program within the Hargis Leadership Institute created to help remove those financial barriers. Funds raised through this project will support scholarships for OSU students participating in study abroad experiences, helping make global learning more accessible to students who may otherwise be unable to participate. It is a campus organization open to all students. At the Hargis Leadership Institute, we believe leadership development happens through experiences that challenge students to step outside what is familiar, engage with different perspectives, and better understand themselves and the world around them. Study abroad provides a unique opportunity for students to do exactly that. Your gift can help a student move from “I wish I could go” to “I’m going.” Whether you give $5, $25, $50, or more, every contribution helps open the door to experiences that can broaden a student’s perspective and influence how they learn, lead, and engage with the world. By supporting Send a Cowboy Abroad, you are investing in access, education, personal growth, and the development of globally minded leaders. Become a Global Cowboy Champion and help us open doors to OSU students.

From Stillwater to the National Stage: OSU INFORMS Chapter
From Stillwater to the National Stage: OSU INFORMS Chapter
Contribute today towads operations research
Contribute today towads operations research informs Every operations researcher learns to ask one question: with limited resources, where does each dollar do the most good? Operations research is the science behind how airlines schedule crews, how hospitals route patients, and how supply chains survive disruption. Our members at the OSU INFORMS Student Chapter study it every day. For this campaign, we asked that question about ourselves. Our answer: get students out of the classroom and onto the national stage. The constraint The experiences that turn a student into a professional happen outside the classroom: presenting to a room of experts, talking with an engineer from a company they hope to join, or learning a tool no course teaches. Each fall, the INFORMS Annual Meeting brings together researchers and industry leaders from across operations research and analytics. For a student, presenting there can be the start of a career. For many, the cost of getting there is the binding constraint. A student who presents once and meets people in the field graduates with a network. A student who can't afford the trip doesn't. The evidence"INFORMS has helped me grow not only as an operations research professional, but also as a leader and part of a broader academic community. Attending the INFORMS Annual Meeting was especially meaningful, as it gave me the opportunity to learn from researchers and practitioners, exchange ideas, and see how analytics and optimization are creating real-world impact. Combined with my involvement in the Oklahoma State University INFORMS Student Chapter, these experiences have strengthened my confidence, broadened my perspective, and deepened my connection to the field."— Kazi Arman Ahmed, Dual MSc in Industrial Engineering & Management and Business Analytics & Data Science, Oklahoma State University The objective: $5,000 We're raising $5,000 to lift that constraint and fund a full year of exciting programs for the OSU INFORMS Student Chapter. The allocation The largest share goes where it changes careers. $2,500: Five $500 conference travel grants. These cover registration, travel, and lodging for members presenting at the INFORMS Annual Meeting or a regional conference. First-time presenters get first priority. $1,200: Speaker series and workshops. Four to six events this year, free and open to every OSU student. $600: Competition prizes. Our fall INFORMS Competition and a spring Analytics Challenge, which are often a student's first introduction to operations research. $500: Community events. Monthly Coffee & Cookie Hours, tables at org fairs, and a first-year welcome event. These are how most of our members first walked in the door. $200: Chapter materials. T-shirts, handouts, and a banner for fairs and competitions. If we beat our goal Every extra dollar goes to more travel grants, because that's where the need is deepest. Each additional $500 sends one more student to the national stage. Where you come in Every gift counts. $25 welcomes a new member at Coffee & Cookie Hour. $500 sends a student to the national stage. Give at any level, then share this page so it reaches someone else who'd like to help. About the OSU INFORMS Student ChapterWe are the OSU Student Chapter of INFORMS (the Institute for Operations Research and the Management Sciences), the international professional society for operations research and analytics. Our mission is to spark interest in the field and to build a community where students and faculty grow together. We do that in three ways: Leadership: We develop leaders ready to tackle real-world challenges. Networking: We connect students with professionals in industry and academia. Professional development: We help students build the skills that industry and academia need today. We, the OSU INFORMS Student Chapter, are a student organization open to all students.

From Pantry to Plate: Connecting Cultures, Building Community
From Pantry to Plate: Connecting Cultures, Building Community
This project will expand culturally diverse food options at the OSU Family Resource Center and launch Global Kitchen, a monthly cooking series.
This project will expand culturally diverse food options at the OSU Family Resource Center and launch Global Kitchen, a monthly cooking series. OSU Nutritional Sciences & FRC Food does more than meet a basic need. It can remind us of home, carry family traditions, and create connections with others. For students living far from home, however, finding familiar foods can sometimes be difficult or expensive. From Pantry to Plate: Connecting Cultures, Building Community will help make culturally diverse foods more accessible while creating opportunities for the OSU community to learn about and celebrate the many food traditions represented on our campus. From Pantry to Plate: Connecting Cultures, Building Community is a campus initiative or organization open to all students. Our project has two connected parts. First, we will expand and sustain a Cultural Food Pantry at the OSU Family Resource Center. We will stock more foods that reflect the cultures, food preferences, and cooking traditions represented across OSU’s international community. Donor support will help expand the variety of culturally familiar foods available through the pantry, giving students the opportunity to find foods they recognize, know how to prepare, and are excited to take home. Second, we will launch Global Kitchen, a monthly cooking series featuring cuisines from different countries. International student organizations will help identify cuisines to highlight, ensuring that the series reflects the diverse cultures and experiences of our campus community. During each class, students will learn simple, practical ways to prepare nutritious meals and explore how pantry ingredients can be used in different recipes. Each Global Kitchen session will be an opportunity to learn, share, and connect. Students will receive recipe cards and selected ingredients to take home so they can recreate the meal themselves, along with information about where to find featured ingredients in the Stillwater community. For us, From Pantry to Plate is about more than putting food on a shelf. It is about helping students find something familiar, discover something new, and feel more comfortable navigating food in a new country. Your gift will help us move food from the pantry to the plate while bringing people together. Donations will support the purchase of culturally familiar foods, expand the variety of items available through the pantry, provide ingredients for cooking classes and nutrition education activities, and develop recipe cards and other resources students can use beyond the classroom. Whether a student is looking for an ingredient that reminds them of home or simply needs some help figuring out what to do with an unfamiliar food, your support can make a difference. Together, we can create a food pantry where international students can find food that feels familiar, learn new skills, share their cultures, and build connections within the OSU community. Thank you for helping us support international students at OSU, one meal, one recipe, and one connection at a time.

Ethics Bowl, OSU Ethics Team, Oklahoma State University, ethics, debate, competition, student team Help the OSU Ethics Team compete in Ethics Bowl tournaments this year by supporting travel, lodging, competition fees, and other expenses. OSU Ethics Club The Oklahoma State University Ethics Team gives students the opportunity to put their skills in ethical reasoning and argumentation to the test through intercollegiate Ethics Bowl competitions. Ethics Bowl creates a space for students to discuss difficult and controversial topics in a setting focused on thoughtful discussion, understanding, and reasoned disagreement rather than judgment. Each year, our students work together to prepare for challenging cases and compete against teams from other universities. This year, we plan to compete at the state competition in Oklahoma and at regionals in Texas. If our team qualifies through regionals, we will have the opportunity to compete at the national level. We typically bring two teams of about five students to competitions, along with other active members of the club who contribute to our preparation throughout the year. Donations to the Ethics Team help cover tournament entry fees, hotels, travel-related expenses, and other costs associated with competing. These expenses can add up quickly, and every contribution makes it easier for students to participate without having to shoulder as much of the cost themselves. Your support helps us continue competing, representing Oklahoma State University, and creating opportunities for students to engage seriously with challenging ethical questions.

BAE, Department of Biosystems and Agricultural Engineering, Biosystems and Agricultural Engineering, Biosystems Engineering, Agricultural Systems Technology, Staff, BAE Staff, Engagement, Support, Honorary, Award Make your impact and help us ensure the students and staff in BAE will have perpetual financial support! OSU Dept. of BAE The Department of Biosystems and Agricultural Engineering is working towards endowing a student scholarship and staff recognition award called the BAE Engagement and Support Team Honorary award! By endowing the award, we can ensure that this important recognition and scholarship assistance is available for our department's students and staff in perpetuity. The BAE Engagement and Support Team Honorary Award was established by the graduates of the 2006, 2011 and 2016 classes to honor and recognize departmental staff that elevate the college experience of BAE beyond academics. The staff of the department have helped shape the culture and the family experience that its students remember. In addition to helping create and nurture the tight knight community that is BAE, the staff have also made a big impact on the recruitment and retention of students. BAE Class of 2006BAE Class of 2011 BAE Class of 2016 "Our class recognized that one of the things that made BAE so special was not just the amazing education that we received, or the relationships that we built with each other as classmates, or the dedication of the professors, but so much of the special experiences that we had hinged on the relationships that we had with the office and lab staff. They contributed so much to the overall family-like environment that the department has." -Mary Elizabeth Mach, BAE class of 2006 While this award was established to assist in recognizing the staff that support the students on their academic journeys, its primary focus is on providing scholarships to students who are actively engaged in the department through the department's different student organizations and activities. Those students and staff who give their time and effort without hesitation are the important pieces of the fabric that is responsible for building the familial culture of the department and enhances the experiences of the BAE community. We hope you will consider supporting the students and staff of the Department of Biosystems and Agricultural Engineering to ensure that we will always be able to recognize those special individuals who show up and give back for the benefit of the department.

Support Oklahoma State's favorite Baja SAE team, Cowboy Racing, as we prepare for another year of building our latest competition car.
Support Oklahoma State's favorite Baja SAE team, Cowboy Racing, as we prepare for another year of building our latest competition car. Cowboy Racing Our Goal With your help we can continue to grow the next chapter of Cowboy Racing. We are the smallest of the Zink Center competition teams, and we want to change this. Your donations would be used to better and develop the team, fund components for our cars, and most importantly help send our members to competition. This year we are traveling to Williamsport, PA to compete in the Baja SAE competition with 125 other teams from across the nation and some from across the world. The Baja SAE competition is the pinnacle of the year for the team, we work on designing our competition car from the ground up, build and manufacture in house, test and prepare for May where we go head-to-head with the best of the best from across the world. Competition is comprised of a suspension and traction course, sled pull, hill climb, design review, and the culmination of the whole thing is the 4-hour endurance race against all 125 teams. As our numbers grow, we want to bring as many new members as possible to experience competition, this is where we need your help. With your support we can allow many more members the chance to witness competition and see what all their hard work has been for. A Little About Cowboy Racing Cowboy Racing is a part of Baja SAE which is an international collegiate design competition hosted by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE). University students around the globe fund, design, and build an off-road prototype race vehicles that compete in a series of rigorous design, dynamic, and marketing challenges. Cowboy Racing has been a OSU recognized club for over 30 years, with a legacy of hardworking students that dedicate countless hours to the competitions. The team plans on competing in several competitions across the nation during the upcoming school year. Our purpose is to expose students to design, manufacturing, planning, testing, and many other crucial aspects to becoming a well-rounded engineer, and what better way to accomplish this than building an entire mini-scale Baja car from the ground up. Cowboy Racing is a campus organization open to all students and the team is completely comprised of students not only from the CEAT college but other majors as well, such as a psychology and air traffic control majors. More Events with Cowboy Racing We also host an annual event called Fall Frenzy, for local Baja SAE teams to come to our track and compete in a mock-competition to prepare for competition in the summer, which is open to the public and a great opportunity to get to know other teams and practice for competition.

Cowboy Aphasia Camp 2027
Cowboy Aphasia Camp 2027
Your donation to this project supports OSU's graduate speech-language pathology students who are helping people with aphasia. Neurons Firing!!
Your donation to this project supports OSU's graduate speech-language pathology students who are helping people with aphasia. Neurons Firing!! The Cowboy Aphasia Camp Team The brain will be the centerpiece for Cowboy Aphasia Camp 2027. This amazing structure supports the ability to use language, and language is at the core of human identity. Language allows us connect with each other, to learn, and to navigate our daily lives. It's easy to take language for granted until things go haywire. Aphasia is the loss of language abilities, usually after stroke or similar brain injury. In rare cases, it can be an early sign of other progressive neurological disease. In all cases, aphasia steals a person’s words and can make it hard to express ideas verbally or through writing. It can also limit the ability to understand spoken and written words. Aphasia is NOT a loss of intelligence, but it does make it difficult for people to use words to show their competence, sense of humor, and identity. Cowboy Aphasia Camp is offered annually on the OSU-Tulsa campus. This event partners OSU graduate students in the Communication Sciences & Disorders Department and people with aphasia for a week of mutual learning. Activities include intensive language practice, computer-based treatment, group communication interactions, and holistic activities such as painting, music, and animal-assisted therapy. You might even catch us dancing, laughing, singing, and telling jokes!The National Aphasia Association estimates that close to 2 million people in the U.S. have aphasia. This makes aphasia more common than Parkinson’s disease, but a survey by the NAA in 2020 showed that most people were not familiar with aphasia or ways to help a person who has it. Your donation to Cowboy Aphasia Camp supports people with aphasia, and the OSU students who are learning to help them in their recovery journey. The funds are used for supplies, food (Did you know that your brain burns about 20% of your daily calorie intake?!), and other camp expenses. You are helping people with aphasia regain their identity, and you are helping OSU produce outstanding speech-language pathologists! Thank you for joining our team and helping us change some brains in 2027!

OSU Debate Club
OSU Debate Club
The OSU Debate Club is an organization seeking to expand civil discourse and help those involved develop their speaking abilities.
The OSU Debate Club is an organization seeking to expand civil discourse and help those involved develop their speaking abilities. Jordan Mouton The Oklahoma State University Debate Club (OSUDC) is a campus organization open to all students that is dedicated to promoting reasonable and formal verbal discourse. OSUDC encourages open-minded discussions over all ranges of topics and issues. The organization wants to help improve our members’ ability to articulate and speak, as well as pioneer their individual beliefs and thoughts for all to hear.Our weekly activities consist of meetings that create a welcome and open environment to discuss various issues. These meetings are not intended to be heavily structured; they are intended to give anyone an opportunity to speak their mind on a subject. However, we do have other projects that we are interested in sponsoring to help fulfill our goals as a club.One way we seek to accomplish this mission is through involvement in debate competitions. Debate competitions allow those involved an opportunity to understand and defend a certain perspective in addition to learning about opposing perspectives and how to address them. These competitions also necessitate knowing how to formulate points so that judges and opponents comprehend what is being said. As such, debate competitions develop skills that are highly pertinent to our mission at OSUDC. There are costs associated with involvement in competition (mainly costs to participate and travel costs). We hope that through your support, we can not only raise funds for this competition, but also for any future competitions we wish to hold.Another way we hope to approach our goals is through on-campus debate events. These can provide opportunities for people to gain knowledge of differing viewpoints and help people think critically about certain topics. In addition, these would also provide a model for civil discourse that could help enhance productive conversations on campus and beyond. Like with debate competitions, we seek your support to help enable us to sponsor these events.These are some, but not necessarily the only ways we hope to expand OSUDC's reach. We would love to see you donate to help support us in OSUDC's mission! Thank you!

CITD Global Research Fellows: OSU Students, Global Impact
Help OSU students tackle real-world global challenges through applied research in trade, energy, supply chains, markets, and economic competitiveness.
Help OSU students tackle real-world global challenges through applied research in trade, energy, supply chains, markets, and economic competitiveness. Wes Watkins CITD The world in which Oklahoma companies operate is becoming more connected, more competitive, and more complex. International trade, energy security, supply-chain resilience, emerging technologies, and global economic risk increasingly affect businesses and communities here at home. Oklahoma State University is uniquely positioned to help students understand those forces while connecting university knowledge to practical challenges facing the state. The CITD Global Research Fellows initiative will expand hands-on applied research opportunities for OSU students through the Wes Watkins Center for International Trade Development. Building on CITD's existing work with graduate assistants and student researchers, Fellows will contribute to projects involving international trade, energy, supply chains, global markets, economic competitiveness, and other emerging issues. Students will have opportunities to work with CITD staff, faculty, industry experts, and international partners to turn research into analysis, briefings, and other useful knowledge products. PhilanthroPete support will help CITD launch and test this expanded model. Funds may support student research through appropriate university mechanisms, data and research resources, analytical and technology tools, project materials, professional development, approved research travel, and the preparation and dissemination of student work. Just as importantly, the pilot will help CITD learn which projects, partnerships, and experiences create the greatest value for students and for the Oklahoma organizations the Center serves. Our goal is larger than completing a single research project. We want to strengthen a sustainable pipeline of applied research opportunities that prepares OSU students for globally connected careers while increasing CITD's capacity to address real-world challenges. Your support will help us test that model, create meaningful experiences for students, and build stronger connections among OSU, Oklahoma industry, and the wider world. Thank you for investing in OSU students and Oklahoma's global future.

Provides free ASL classes to the community, creating a space where people can learn, connect, and bridge communication gaps with the Deaf community.
Provides free ASL classes to the community, creating a space where people can learn, connect, and bridge communication gaps with the Deaf community. Jennifer Fannon Building Bridges Through American Sign Language (ASL) OSU-OKC Conversational ASL Community Classes is a campus organization open to all students. What is our project? We’re excited to launch engaging community classes designed to teach conversational American Sign Language (ASL) in a fun, interactive way! Whether you’re a beginner or looking to refresh your skills, these hands-on sessions will empower you to communicate confidently with the Deaf community. Through interactive activities, group practice, and real-world scenarios, you’ll quickly learn to sign and understand ASL for everyday conversations. Led by native ASL users who are passionate about giving back to the community, these classes are a fantastic opportunity to build connections, break down language barriers, and create a more inclusive environment! Location, location, location! To make classes convenient and accessible, all classes will be held at one location: the OSU-OKC campus. Each class will last one hour, providing a convenient opportunity to learn ASL, build communication skills, and connect with the Deaf community in a welcoming learning environment. Length of program: The program will cover three modules over the course of the program. Each week, participants will receive the same lesson as the rest of the class, ensuring everyone stays on track with the course content from beginning to end. When? How Long? Classes will be held in the evening at the OSU-OKC campus, likely starting around 6:00 PM, a convenient time when most people are finished with work or other daytime commitments. Each class will be one hour, with three total classes and three hours of learning throughout the program. The program will begin during the first week of November and conclude during the third week of November. We want to make learning ASL convenient and accessible while respecting your busy schedule! What can you expect to learn? Everyone learns at their own pace, so personal results will vary. At a minimum, you’ll leave knowing survival signs and the ASL alphabet, enabling you to start a basic conversation with a Deaf person. With more practice, some participants will gain confidence in holding full, everyday conversations. How your support helps: Your support is crucial in helping us break communication barriers and foster deeper connections with the Deaf community. By contributing, you’re helping us create an inclusive environment where everyone can be seen and heard. Your generosity will also allow our instructors to participate in professional development, improving their teaching skills and enhancing future classes. Thank you for being a part of this important mission – we couldn’t do it without you! Together, we’re making a lasting impact on accessibility and inclusivity.

This October, we will collaborate with the Clarinets of OSU for a Michael Jackson-inspired “Thriller” performance. In April, we will also have a showcase where we can share our work with family and friends. The showcase will consist of multiple group dances, including at least one performance with the entire team, as well as smaller group performances that members will direct, choreograph, and plan themselves. Having access to costumes and props will allow us to make these performances more creative and engaging. The purpose of our showcase is to celebrate the outlet that dance provides for our members during our time at OSU and to highlight the teamwork, creativity, and dedication that we put into our craft twice a week. Every donation, no matter the amount, will help the Hip Hop Dance Crew express our art freely and bring our ideas to life.

We are a group of 15-20 individuals that exist to reach students for in the community by meeting, inviting, and equipping them to play and enjoy the game. The team is competitive, with the goal being to qualify for regionals each year. Each tournament that the ultimate frisbee team attends requires dues ranging from 200 to 500 dollars. Our goal is to attend as many tournaments as we can. For most players, it's the highlight of each year. The past two years, we have qualified for Regionals. Two years ago, we went to Tulsa for Regionals. Last year, we went to Colorado Springs. These trips are outside of our yearly budget. Typically, the team has been fortunate enough to rely on GoFundMe to have enough money to cover the tournament. However, this isn't sustainable. This fundraiser would allow us to travel to these tournaments without having the pressure of having to fund them ourselves. Thank you for considering our goals. Donations to the team would be greatly appreciated!

The Oklahoma State University Esports Excellence Fund's goal is to promote, grow, and enhance the Esports presence on the Stillwater campus. OSU Esports Esports and video games are fun, they bring people together, and they are taken seriously at many college campuses across the nation. The Oklahoma State University Esports Excellence Fund's goal is to promote, grow, and enhance the esports presence on the Stillwater campus. Esports and video games are a staple in the lives of many prospective, incoming, and current students. For example, the largest recognized student group on campus is the Gamers of OSU. There is an Esports Arena housed in the Student Union. The industry surrounding video games and esports are presently studied and taught on campus. Employers are looking for graduates with the same skills that video games develop in students. Whether OSU students game via PC, console, or mobile device, an estimated 8 out of 10 students game in some form or fashion. Esports are at OSU and esports belong at OSU. However, decision makers often underestimate their potential impact and money is the scarce resource on any college campus. We want to demonstrate the practical, educational and financial viability of esports on a college campus. In order to accomplish this, we need your help. Your financial support will go towards providing: Scholarships for Students Keeping the Arena Technologically Relevant Tournament/Event Creation and Execution Supporting Esports Academic Course Initiatives Your gift matters, no matter the size. Financial provision not only promotes the growth of gaming and esports on campus, but it demonstrates the passion of the gaming culture. Join us in making OSU the premier esports college in the Big XII.

Help Pete's Pet Posse contribute to the success of America's HEALTHIEST Campus®! Pete's Pet Posse spreads smiles and love at Oklahoma State! Join us in spreading joy wherever we go! Pete's Pet Posse Pete’s Pet Posse (P3), OSU’s Pet Therapy Program, is a cornerstone of the university’s commitment to being America’s Healthiest Campus®. Pete’s Pet Posse enhances the physical and emotional health of the entire OSU family. Pet Therapy teams serve in offices across campus to provide a friendly, furry face to students, faculty and staff who need a pick-me-up during the day or support during a stressful time. The daily presence of the P3 pups reminds everyone that their well-being is important, and they have a friend that is happy to shower them with love and comfort. P3 is unique because each therapy dog belongs to families of employees and others affiliated with OSU. They live with their humans, spend time in OSU offices and visit a variety of OSU locations regularly to make the university a little brighter orange. This incredible program has expanded beyond Stillwater to the OSU-Tulsa, OSU Center for Health Sciences and the OSU College of Osteopathic Medicine Cherokee Nation in Tahlequah, the nation’s first tribally-affiliated medical school. Nearly 90 pet therapy teams serve our students, faculty, staff and visitors system wide. Pete’s Pet Posse is self-funded and relies on donations to operate. Your gift helps Pete’s Pet Posse increase its capacity to serve the entire OSU community. The program continues to grow as new pet therapy teams are added each year. With your support, we can outfit each team with the supplies and support needed to provide this valuable and impactful service to the university. Gifts to this project through the OSU Foundation, a 501(c)(3) organization, are tax deductible as allowed by law. If you have questions about your gift, please contact the OSU Foundation at 800.622.4678.
