Welcome to the Office of University Advancement

Dear Alumni, Parents and Friends,

It is my distinct honor and privilege to lead Spring Arbor University’s advancement and fundraising efforts. Step onto our campus and one clear thought will most likely permeate your mind, “Spring Arbor is not what it once was, and yet it is exactly what it used to be.” Tremendous development and growth have occurred over the past 135 years and still we hold unwaveringly to our founding mission.

Spring Arbor University’s president, Dr. Charles Webb, greatly appreciates you partnering with us in providing transformational education to our students. Your gifts, regardless of size, serve as a critical means in advancing your University’s mission and vision. Rest assured, we will unapologetically abide by and defend the Spring Arbor University Concept to ensure your trust in our ability to steward your gifts effectively and appropriately.

Thank you for your partnership in providing support through the annual fund, gift planning, SAU radio, special projects/programs, capital projects, and corporate and foundation relations. Please take a few moments to browse through our Web site and experience some of the ways your generosity impacts the lives of our students. Every gift you give is a tremendous blessing to our students and your university.

God’s blessings,

Dr. Brent Ellis
Vice President for University Advancement
President of SAU Foundation
