Our Service

The purpose of StuFu is to educate students about the impact and importance of philanthropic giving by facilitating student giving campaigns. StuFu serves OSU by building, cultivating, and sustaining relationships with the OSU community by acting as a bridge between the student body, community, donors, and the OSU Foundation.

CowboyThx

Participating in CowboyThx Week is part of the OSU Traditions Keepers program. Throughout the year, StuFu is on campus encouraging the spirit of philanthropy in all students. CowboyThx Week is a way for the students to say ‘Thank You’ to the donors and alumni that make Oklahoma State great! In 2012, StuFu developed CowboyThx week, educating the student body about the impact donors are making and giving students a way to express their gratitude. CowboyThx week has become a staple on campus in the years since its establishment. Each year, during Homecoming week, students write thank you letters, sign a giant banner and use #CowboyThx on social media to share their appreciation for the incredible generosity of the donors to OSU.

Donor Engagement

Student Foundation makes it a priority to express their gratitude for the donors that make their education possible. The membership sets aside time at each of their meetings to write thank you notes. They also, host 3 Thank-a-thons per year where they go to their favorite spots on campus to film personalized thank you videos for our donors.

PhilanthroPete

Giving to PhilanthroPete is part of the OSU Traditions Keepers program. Oklahoma State University has it's very own crowdfunding platform, PhilanthroPete! PhilanthroPete empowers OSU units, departments, and student organizations to make projects a reality through fundraising.
