Support Doane Excellence
With the Excellence Fund, you choose where your gift goes, helping excellence grow where your heart leads.
Excellence is everywhere at Doane.
At Doane University, excellence takes many forms. It’s a student stepping into their potential. It’s curiosity sparked in a classroom, a voice rising on stage, a cheer from the sidelines. It lives in every act of leadership, every challenge overcome, and every dream pursued on our campuses.
That kind of excellence deserves support—and now, it has a name that reflects its purpose and promise.
Introducing the Doane Excellence Fund.
Formerly known as the Doane Fund, the Excellence Fund bridges the gap between tuition and the true cost of a Doane education. What’s more, it gives you the opportunity to direct your gift to the area that means the most to you—whether that’s scholarships, academics, student life, athletics, the arts, or our beautiful campus spaces.
Excellence. Powered by you.
Every gift is a vote of confidence in our students. Every dollar is an investment in their excellence.
