For Students

For some students, getting through college is a financial challenge. In the past, Mason students have raised funds for scholarships that have helped their classmates. As a Mason student, the size of your gift doesn’t matter. It’s more about sending a message about your confidence in the university’s future. Learn more about student annual giving.

For Faculty and Staff

Mason faculty and staff gifts represent an extraordinary commitment to the university and its students. What could be more meaningful than backing up your hard work with financial support that ensures the programs and people where you work will flourish?

As a faculty or staff member, you can always make your gift online or bring it by the University Development office (Mason Hall D201). You can also sign up for payroll deduction.

Research

Great universities produce groundbreaking research. Mason is no different. Every day, Mason faculty and students are working toward breakthroughs. But the wisdom and creativity in university labs can’t happen without support. Gifts support both undergraduate and graduate student research and fellowships and faculty research.

Intellectual Property Program

The Mason Intellectual Property Program (MIPP) is a venture organized under the George Mason University Foundation to further the research aims of the university by commercializing and licensing intellectual property (IP) that has been donated to or acquired by the foundation.
