Forever Samford Class Campaign

Forever Begins Now. This is your year! As a Samford University graduate, your class is celebrating an important reunion as we launch our Forever Samford capital campaign. This campaign will strengthen programs, increase scholarship funds, and open new doors for students – forever providing opportunity and growth. We aim to do this by asking for recurring support. These gifts, of any amount, will serve as the building bricks for our solid foundation - an investment in our students and community. Please explore your class year below to see who is leading the charge to bring your class to the top of the leader board.

Forever Samford is a six-year, $300 million capital campaign that is the largest undertaking of its kind in Samford University’s 175-year history. It will help to provide the financial foundation for scholarships, academic programs and facilities as Samford continues to prepare and send dedicated, thoughtful, ethical people out into the world.
