About

Something exciting is happening on March 20 & 21 at Morningside University — our eighth annual Mside Madness Giving Event kicks off at 8am on March 20 and goes to 8pm on March 21 -  we need your help!

Every gift, no matter the amount, makes a difference in our students' lives and contributes to their success. The more you help share the news about Morningside Madness, the more opportunities we have to combine individual gifts with hundreds of others to help support life-changing scholarships and innovative student programs. Follow along to stay up-to-date on all the latest happenings and watch as the entire Morningside community comes together to help transform the lives of our students!

Over 25% to our goal - let's rally together Morningsiders!

We've achieved more than 25% of our goal, but we still have a long way to go to meet our target for Morningside Madness. ๐Ÿš€ We are working our way towards our goal of getting 550 individual gifts to raise a total of $160,000. You gift will go towards impacting students.
