MTSU’s annual Charitable Giving Campaign is a monthlong effort by faculty and staff to support worthy causes. The campaign is fueled largely by monthly payroll deductions from employees over the next year but also allows one-time, lump-sum gifts at the donor’s discretion. 

MTSU employees again showed their True Blue spirit with a record $158,278.74 pledged during the 2023 Employee Charitable Giving Campaign. The pledge total easily surpassed the $147,500 goal, with 755 participants taking part in the annual tradition. 

This incredible amount reveals the caring nature of our faculty and staff and reflects a collective acknowledgement that it's important to give back to this great community. 

During the upcoming Oct. 1–Nov. 1 campaign, we hope to break last year’s record giving amount and, in fact, to reach $160,000 in giving. 

Participants can designate gifts to organizations from a list of 10 independent charities and three federated groups of charities, including Community Health Charities, Community Shares, and local United Way organizations. 

This campuswide effort shows what it really means to be True Blue.
