Support MUS

Support MUS

How does a school measure success? Is it the number of AP scholars or National Merit Semifinalists we have each year or the number of academic and athletic competitions we win? Is it the total of college-scholarship dollars earned or the number of people reached through service to the community?
 
By all these measures, we have great success each year. But we also find that one of the most significant measures of our success is the support we continue to receive from our dedicated constituents and friends. Past, present, and future, the students and faculty of MUS benefit from this legacy of philanthropy.
 
Because of you, we are able to fulfill our mission and implement the programs and activities that make this school the premier educational institution for boys in the Mid-South. Through your contributions to the Annual Fund, Endowments, and Estate Planning, we can ensure that current and future students have the necessary tools to excel. We are grateful for your generosity and vision, which create unlimited opportunities for MUS students and faculty.
