Annual Giving

The cornerstone of Barton’s fundraising, the Annual Fund supports our budget, strengthens our programs, and helps to bridge the gap between the rising costs of educating students and the income from tuition and endowment. Each year our alumni, parents, faculty, staff, friends, businesses, and corporations make their investment in Barton College, providing us the necessary funds to look toward the future while maintaining our traditions.

An unrestricted gift to the Annual Fund is arguably the most valuable, as it provides the college the flexibility to direct the funds where the need is greatest. Unrestricted giving impacts the entire campus — every program, every person, and every aspect of the college. These unrestricted funds support our budget, deliver support services and financial assistance to our students, maintain our buildings and grounds, and pay for technological improvements such as library and computing enhancements.

All gifts, regardless of the amount, are welcome and appreciated. Your tax-deductible donation will enhance the educational experience of our students.
