DSUnite raises over $329K for scholarships

The Dakota State University Foundation raised more than 329-thousand dollars during its annual fundraising event held earlier this month.

Close to 250 people attended DSUnite, formerly referred to as the university’s gala, on April 1st to support DSU academic and athletic scholarships.  

Through sponsorships, tickets, raffle and games, auction items, and cash donations, DSU surpassed its initial goal of raising 250-thousand dollars for the evening.

The Masters Experience package – a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity – featuring badges for a day at the Masters, passes to the 1018 VIP Club, and transportation by private jet raised 45-thousand dollars.  Attendees were also able to donate to Fund-A-Need, raising an additional more than 47-thousand dollars for Dakota State student scholarships.
