  • (Even When You Couldn't
    (EVEN WHEN YOU COULDN’T BE) Annual Giving Annual Report • Fiscal Year 2020 A NO ONE WILL EVER FORGET THIS YEAR As the novel coronavirus changed life as we knew it, a place generally bustling with activity and energy was one of the first to become unrecognizable. By March 11, MSU students could no longer learn in classrooms. Days later, we heard there would be no March Madness for the Spartans. By the end of that week, parking on campus wasn’t an issue for anyone. Even those who typically would have been at MSU seven days a week found themselves isolated from the physical place where they dedicated their time and talent to discovery and learning. Yet, in the ways that truly count, they are still here. And you are too. In the first few months of the crisis, more than 4,760 Spartans gave $462,341 to emergency assistance funds for students in immediate need. That’s only a portion of the more than $76.5 million given by over 43,431 alumni, parents, students, faculty, staff and friends of MSU throughout the year. We could give you a whole annual report on numbers like these—and there are impressive numbers to be sure—but the numbers only scratch the surface of what your gifts meant to the students and faculty of MSU. So, this year’s report is dedicated to stories about your impact. At a time of great uncertainty for everyone, we hope these stories convey the one thing that has remained steadfast. You are here.
