The Pittsburg State University Community Campaign began in 1985 with the incorporation of the PSU Foundation. This annual campaign brings business leaders from across Crawford County to join forces with PSU to raise funds to support scholarships, academic programs, and other university needs, strengthening a longtime relationship between Pittsburg State and the community.  

This year we will celebrate the 36th annual "Partners in Progress" Community Campaign kickoff virtually. Check out the video link below where you will hear from co-chairs Ms. Denise Grasso, Mr. Kevin Fry and Dr. Jason Heardt, along with President Steve Scott and the 2021 Rex Crowley award recipients. 

We are so thankful for the partnership that began more than 100 years ago with the community and are excited to continue this tradition.
