Giving to Capital
A Culture of Generosity
One of the most powerful testaments to the impact of a Capital education is how you — our alumni, parents, and faculty and staff — sustain the excellence through a culture of philanthropy and generosity. As Capital embraces nearly 200 years of rich history and tradition, your support has never been more important. From the Capital Fund to creative estate planning, there are many opportunities to make a gift to Capital. Find the option that works best for you.

Create a lasting legacy through planned giving.
We know you plan for the future. Capital makes plans, too. Planned gifts, or gifts made through estates, allow us to recognize your generosity in your lifetime while you create a lasting legacy that fuels Capital University's mission well into the future.
Faculty & Staff Giving
Your support in Capital’s Faculty-Staff giving campaign sends a powerful message to students, alumni, and even prospective members of our CapFam. Gifts to the university—no matter the size of the contribution—are about participation. The work we do throughout the university has incredible value, and one of the easiest ways to show we support our own cause is to demonstrate that belief through charitable giving.
Will you join with the other members of Capital’s community who have chosen to show their support? Please participate in this year’s campaign by contributing via payroll deduction or by making an annual gift. To make a payroll deduction, contact hr@capital.edu and request the form.
