About

Cowboys Raise Gold is the day the Hardin-Simmons community comes together to make a collective impact on the lives of our students. Every gift—no matter the size—moves us forward by showing our students that they are supported, believed in, and surrounded by a community that cares deeply about their success.

This year, our goal isn’t measured in dollars—it’s measured in people. We are striving to rally 250 donors to stand behind Hardin-Simmons students and invest in scholarships, innovative academic programs, and the resources that help them learn, grow, and lead.

When you give on Cowboys Raise Gold, you’re doing more than making a gift—you’re joining a movement of alumni, parents, faculty, staff, students, and friends who believe in the power of education and the mission of Hardin-Simmons University.

Be one of the 250. Give today and help build a brighter future for our students.
