Our tradition of excellence in education relies on the support of our alumni and friends.We encourage you to give in ways that work for you, from hosting one of our current students through internship and practicum opportunities to contributing to alumni scholarships and the Annual Fund.
Morgridge alumni are uniquely positioned to assist current students through providing opportunities for them to serve in the community and augment their classroom learning experience. Support the next generation of Morgridge alumni through supervising or hosting an internship or practicum at your workplace.
Gifts at any level make a direct impact on hundreds of Morgridge students & faculty every day. These acts of generosity allow Morgridge to continue to aspire to greatness and to educate the next generation of change agents.
Interested in volunteering, mentoring or supervising students? Contact Nick Heckart by email (Nick.Heckart@du.edu) or phone at 303-871-2747.
