Did you miss Giving Day? You can still make a gift here!
Ole Miss Alumni Association
The Time to Support the Alumni Association is Now!

The time is now to secure the future of your alma mater! Members of the University of Mississippi community are challenging you to make a difference in the lives of students. Maximize your Giving Day impact by answering these challenges and helping us unlock critical resources. Your gift – no matter the size – makes a difference.

Your investment in Ole Miss Alumni Association scholarships enables exceptional students to become a part of our university and its community, provides support for our scholars and works to create a network of alumni who can make a difference in the world.

On Giving Day, another major funding opportunity supports the planned replacement of the current Triplett Alumni Center with a new four-story building to better serve the Ole Miss Alumni Association’s mission. The new building will perform as a welcome center for alumni, prospective students and University guests. A new ballroom and breakout rooms will allow more opportunities for students, faculty, staff, alumni and others to host meetings and events as well as provide more space for expanded student engagement services. 

In a new partnership, the Office of Admissions will maintain a presence with staff and offices in the new facility. With the Triplett Alumni Center as a starting point for campus tours for visiting high school and transfer students, the Alumni Association can immediately begin forming the connections that will serve these future Rebels throughout their lives.

It’s easy to give! Ole Miss Giving Day accepts Apple Pay, Venmo, PayPal and all major credit cards. Consider becoming a monthly donor to build a long-term legacy!
