Discovery Women's Group
Together, the women of Discovery are making a huge impact on Ball State and the Community!!
The Discovery Women's Group annually selects and funds innovative projects and programs presented to them by Ball State students and faculty. Since the group's inception, the women have awarded more than $1 million in grants to approximately 45 programs. 


In Discovery, you are a member, not just a donor and will have numerous opportunities for networking and social participation. 

In honor of One Ball State Day, the Discovery board is providing a $10,000 match for new members. This means if you join today, your gift will be doubled! 


With a minimum annual contribution of $250, you will have a huge impact on Ball State University and Muncie. The membership levels are as follows:
  • Full Members make a gift of $1,000 or more annually and are entitled to two votes during grant selection.
  • Associate Members - $500–$999 annually, one vote.
  • Supporting Members - $250–$499 annually, half a vote.

Thank you for considering a gift to the Discovery Women's Group where you will connect with an amazing group of dedicated leaders who are passionate about Ball State's future.
