Giving to the University of Montana
Excellence Fund
Missoula Business Drive
The Missoula Business Drive is a volunteer solicitation of the local business and professional community that occurs annually in the fall and raises much needed unrestricted annual gifts. This Drive was started 30 years ago by a group of local businessmen who wanted to cement a relationship of economic interdependence between The University and the community.
More than sixty volunteers are hitting the streets to contact associates in the Missoula business community, with the goal of raising more than $200,000 for The University’s greatest needs. These gifts will support programs and projects such as scholarships for talented students, student recruitment efforts, student service projects, campus outreach, the Mansfield Library, faculty and staff development, classroom equipment and technology and undergraduate research.
To learn more about the Drive, or to volunteer, please contact Krista.Frederikson.
