Impact of Giving

The economy has impacted everyone. Therefore, we are asking alumni and friends to consider an annual contribution for a three-year period, based on individual circumstances, to the Excellence Funds. These gifts will greatly impact our continued excellence in education.

We are seeking non-endowed private funds from alumni and friends to support the quality programs described in this brochure. Excellence funds will provide the resources to ensure that our students, faculty, staff, alumni and friends are all beneficiaries of an outstanding Walton experience.

We are blessed to have so many key stakeholders - employers, alumni, donors and business colleagues - who have been great friends to the Walton College and the University of Arkansas.

By contributing to the Excellence Funds, you can directly impact the innovative programs that influence the lives of students, faculty, staff and the people of Arkansas.
