Support the Future of Creativity

At Sam Houston State University’s College of Arts & Media, students don’t just study the arts—they live them. Every day, they grow as creators, storytellers, performers, and visionaries, shaping the world around them through their work.

Your gift helps provide the tools, experiences, and mentorship that fuel their transformation. Whether it’s a scholarship, a spotlight on stage, or access to industry-leading resources, your support makes a lasting impact.


Ways to Make a Difference

  • Scholarships
    Contribute to the College of Arts & Media Scholarship Fund and help talented students overcome financial barriers as they pursue degrees in the arts, media, and communication. Your support helps us recruit, retain, and empower the next generation of creative leaders.

  • Enrichment Fund
    A gift to the College of Arts & Media Enrichment Fund gives the Dean the flexibility to support student research, fund travel to performances and conferences, and launch creative initiatives where they’re needed most.

  • Department and Program Support
    Donors may also choose to support a specific academic department or school—directly impacting the students, faculty, and programs they’re most passionate about.

  • Legacy Gifts
    Interested in establishing a named fund or making a planned gift? Contact the CAM Dean’s Office or the SHSU University Advancement team to explore long-term giving options.
