One Ball State Day 2026
The Student Faith Fund exists with The Navigators non-denominational Christian organization to help students on campus regardless of spiritual background develop and explore their worldview.

Our mission is to know Christ, make Him known, and help others do the same. We accomplish this through small group Bible studies, life-on-life discipleship, on-campus outreach, leadership development opportunities, and fun!
If you want to be a part of our life-changing ministry throughout the year, our Ball State Foundation account is #075100 for the Student Faith Fund. Funds through the Foundation are used for students to help with conference scholarships, meals, and leadership development resources.
