Our students understand the importance of giving and that tuition alone does not fund their full experience at Howard Payne University. It is through the Howard Payne Fund (formerly the Annual Fund) that our alumni, friends and family directly impact the lives of our students and help provide a financial foundation to support their academic and spiritual growth. This fund helps meet the everyday needs and mission of the university to help enhance the student experience inside the classroom, on the athletic fields, and through student activities.
