The world’s oceans, lakes and rivers cover more than 70% of the globe and drive commerce, security, energy, food supplies and climate. To understand the impact of the marine domain on our world we must invest in marine technologies.
Your gift to Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering (NAME) will help provide a transformative experience for students who will become leaders in hydrodynamics, robotics and autonomy, marine renewable energy and more.
Every gift matters. On Giving Blueday we invite you to give to one of two funds:
- Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering (NAME) Gifts: This discretionary fund provides our department with the flexibility to respond to needs as they arise and enhances the overall student experience at NAME.
- Harry Benford Loyal Crew Fund: Gifts to this endowed fund support the activities of the Loyal Crew student organization, which raises money to award scholarships to eligible students in NAME.
NAME is a globally recognized leader in marine teaching and research. The work we have accomplished would not be possible without our donor community. Your support will allow us to remain at the forefront of innovation and teaching. Thank you and Go Blue!
Please Note: Gifts to endowed funds will be administered as permanent endowments under Michigan law and University policies; excess distributions may be added to the principal for reinvestment or used later for the purpose(s) for which the fund was established.
