Give to Walker College

In October 2011, Appalachian State University announced its largest fundraising campaign in the university’s history – the $200 million “Campaign for Appalachian: Making a difference in the world… one student at a time.” You support the campiagn and the the students within the Walker College of Business in numerous ways. You can give on an annual basis, make a pledge, create an endowed scholarship and much more! For example, the Walker College Dean’s Club provides current funding for critical needs within our college.

Your Impact

Here are a few examples of how your help assists us in providing the best educational environment for our students - the global business leaders of tomorrow! Funding needs vary based on changing needs - thus, if you have a particular priority, please contact Rob Hudspeth.

  • Student scholarships: In 2009-10, more than $200,000 in scholarships supported almost 200 students.
  • Travel funding: Financial support can subsidize the travel expenses for our students and faculty when they attend conferences and workshops.
  • Equipment purchases and equipment maintenance.
  • Bringing business leaders back to the classroom: Each year business leaders share professional experiences and advice with students during the Lewis L. Mack Alumni Day, Carole Moore McLeod Entrepreneur Summit, and the Finance & Banking Career Day.
