When you choose to support Bethel by making a gift, you bolster the very foundation of the University. Unrestricted gifts are the most flexible type of support, giving Bethel leadership the ability to seize exciting opportunities as they arise and address immediate needs in support of our students and programs.
Bethel Fund
Gifts to the Bethel Fund touch all aspects of the University experience, providing immediate and vital support wherever it’s needed most, from student financial aid—the University’s highest priority—to state-of-the-art teaching and technology tools used in classrooms. Help our students thrive and improve the entire campus community each year.
Gifts in Recognition
A tribute gift is a meaningful way to convey sympathy to the bereaved, memorialize a loved one, commemorate a special occasion or honor a person’s life and accomplishments. Your gift to Bethel University made in honor or memory of this special person ensures a legacy that extends far into the future.
If you would like Bethel to notify the honoree or a family member directly, please indicate their name and the address of the individual to be notified.
