Give SMU Days 2024 is over, but you can still support students. Click here to give.
Why give during "Give SMU Days"?


We make a greater impact, together.

We are facing a national shortage of healthcare workers.

By investing in today’s students, we help them grow into tomorrow’s compassionate healthcare providers who contribute to shaping the future of healthcare for our friends, our loved ones, and ourselves.


We pay tribute to our shared history.

Through philanthropy, we have a unique opportunity to honor and remember the healthcare heroes in our lives by making donations in their names to ensure their legacy of compassion and service lives on.


We see the next 100 years of SMU.

SMU stands as a dynamic leader in health sciences education, continuously evolving to meet the demands of the modern world. With a rich history spanning 115 years, we are committed to a vision and mission that ensures our relevance for generations to come.



Celebrate our future healthcare heroes on May 14 & 15 by giving to students and double your impact with matching opportunities! Together, we change the lives of our students for the better.
