Give

At the heart of Monmouth’s success is the generous support of our alumni, parents and friends.

Gifts give the opportunity to make a difference in the lives of our Scots from the classroom to courts.
Rain or shine, summer or winter, Monmouth remains beautiful because of the support of our alumni and friends.
Our Scholars Day is made possible thanks to donor-funded scholarships.
We had another successful Scots Day of Giving! A big thank you to all our alumni, faculty, staff and friends of the college in making it a success.
Gifts to the Monmouth Fund help shape students' classroom experiences and support faculty-led academic innovation.
The support from our alumni base is what sets Monmouth apart from the rest.

Every Scot counts

That’s why every gift to Monmouth College fuels the Flame of White & Crimson. With your help, we can fund top-level academic programs, support our Fighting Scots, provide scholarships, and keep our beloved residential campus beautiful.

Best of all, you can see your philanthropy in action as our students produce cutting-edge research, explore the world and earn national recognition.

Every gift in its place, and a place for every gift

Monmouth recognizes the impact of every gift, no matter the size. Whether it is a contribution to the Monmouth Fund, a matching gift from an employer or a bequest, your gift helps keep the Flame burning bright for generations to come.
