Miss One Ball State Day? You can still make an impact.
One Ball State Day 2022

Together, we made history again in support of Ball State students, faculty, and programs. This is our call to beneficence....and yours. 


We couldn't have done it without you
Apr 06, 2022

Yesterday, you filled social media feeds with Cardinal pride. 

You supported everything from scholarships to student emergency aid, athletics to social justice research. You showed the world what the Ball State family can do when we come together. 

Because of Cardinals across the globe, we raised $1M+ for our students and Ball State’s greatest needs. From the bottom of our cardinal hearts, thank you. 

When you give, We Fly.
