Gifts for the MU Landscape

Gift of a Tree

A tree is a living legacy, an investment that appreciates in size and beauty. A gift of a tree is a profoundly thoughtful and enduring way of honoring or commemorating a graduate, alum, parent, retiring member of the University's faculty or staff, an organization or special event. A 5"x8" bronze plaque alongside the tree gratefully acknowledges your gift and the honoree. Your gift of $1,500 to $2,000 also provides for the tree's continued care and enriches Mizzou's botanical education resources.

Unlike the Adopt-A-Tree program, gifts of trees may be located outside of the university's Tree Trails system. Many different species are needed for different locations on campus. Our landscape architects will gladly assist you in your selection.

Gift of a Bench

Another popular gift option is an attractive, comfortable redwood bench – an amenity much appreciated by students, visitors and the entire University community. A 2½" x 5" bronze plaque commemorating your gift is a functional way to have your generosity acknowledged and enjoyed for years. Your $5,000 gift will fund a new bench in an approved location.
