Falcon Strong: Support our Students

Impact the future of our Falcon community 

At this time, the areas of greatest philanthropic need are listed below. BGSU students are counting on individuals like you for support!

The impact of your gift

The Bridge to BG Fund provides scholarships to students in need of financial gap support, who may not otherwise be able to attend or remain at BGSU. During this difficult time, our students need our help to achieve the dream of a college education.   

The Diversity & Belonging Initiative Fund provides general support to the BGSU Division of Diversity & Belonging, established in 2019. Gifts to this fund help the division continue to provide programming and trainings that promote an environment of equity and inclusion for all identities, especially the most marginalized. 

The Student Emergency Fund can help provide resources for students facing difficult situations. The fund is entirely supported by charitable donations like yours, and any amount helps meet a student’s time-sensitive need.

The Firelands Emergency Aid for Students Fund assists BGSU Firelands students who face sudden, urgent financial needs.
