At Capital University, belief is more than hope. It's action.
We believe in our students' potential; their curiosity, courage, and ability to lead and serve in an ever-changing world. Every day, students across all campuses are preparing to make a difference in their professions, communities, and their callings.
On Day of Giving, our entire Capital community comes together to show them just how deeply they are supported.
Every gift, no matter the size, is a vote of confidence in our students and in the future we are building together. Your support strengthens scholarships, academic programs, student experiences, and opportunities across campus.
You can choose how you make an impact by supporting:
- The Capital Fund and university departments, addressing the university's and departments' greatest needs
- The Law Excellence Fund, advancing the mission of the Law School
- The Trinity Fund, supporting Trinity Lutheran Seminary and its work in the church and the world
- Athletics Booster Funds, empowering our student-athletes and teams
This year, our goal is 575 donors—575 people who believe in Capital and in the promise of our students.
Join us. Share the message. Make your gift.
Because when our community believes together, incredible things happen. Giving Matters. Believe it!
