Help us reach our goal of 30 percent participation among all JMU employees

As employees of James Madison University, we make a difference in the lives of students each day. And now, as James Madison University — our university — enters its second century, you are in an even better position to bring about positive change in the areas that matter most to you.

Your donations help support a broad range of activities on campus — and can be designated to the area of the university that matters most to you. Find out more.

You CAN be the change. And together we can achieve great things. Make an immediate impact on engaged students and professors by making a gift today.

As of February 28, we only need 209 more employees to reach our goal of 30% participation for 2008-09!

Thank you to the 793 full-time and part-time JMU employees who have already given in support of students at James Madison University.
