We are thankful for the incredible individuals who make our mission possible—our supporters. Their generosity, commitment, and shared belief in our vision create lasting change in communities around the world. Through their inspiring stories of giving, we celebrate them and the lives transformed by their gifts.

HONORING A SISTER, LEAVING A LEGACY
For the past 35 years, it has been my honor to memorialize my sister, Rev. Barbara Ann Wilson, and in the process help African-American female students who prepare for Christian...

A FAMILY LEGACY OF LOVE AND SERVICE
Leila Lipen Talley lived a life filled with compassion and generosity. Well known among friends and family for her gifts of hospitality, benevolence, and embracing new and diverse experiences, she worked tirelessly to find common ground with a cross-section of cultures.

Trusts for Family Care and Kingdom Impact
From rough and tumble beginnings in Montana and Illinois, Margie and Jay Johnson went on to live out their dreams in lives of faith and adventure, sharing God's gifts in places near and far.

INVESTING IN THE NEXT GENERATION
My association with Fuller Seminary goes back to 1978, when I attended a one-time conference called Women and the Ministries of Christ. Pastoral scholars, working from the original languages, unfurled the Scriptures to show that women were indeed included in the call to teach and to baptize in the name of Jesus Christ.

Fulfilling the Great Commission
I can't think of a better way to fulfill the Great Commission, to go into all the world and preach the gospel, than to give to Fuller, a place that is going to train leaders to continue this legacy long after I'm gone.

GOD CALLS US ALL TO GIVE WITH JOY
Our lives are given to us as stewards. We get the privilege of offering as much or as little as we have in service to God and to one another.

Gratitude For The Opportunities Fuller Gave Me
From 1984-1993 I enjoyed the privilege of doing life at Fuller, first as a psychology student and then as a postdoctoral intern. I feel incredibly fortunate to have had this enriching, formational experience.

Scholarship Supports Future Christian Leaders
For more than thirty-five years, Erwin and Marilyn Mooradian supported the Charles E. Fuller Scholarship fund for students in Fuller?s School of Intercultural Studies.

A JOURNEY OF GRATITUDE
As a young man, I was searching for some way to be better prepared for serving in God's kingdom. I knew I should have more training to sharpen the gifts and desires that God had given me. I asked God for some sign that would indicate His will for me. The answer was Fuller, and I sent in an application in 1959.

Planting The Seeds
The seed was planted for my support of Fuller Seminary during my early twenties. As a new believer, I read "My Heart Christ's Home", written by Fuller faculty member, Dr. Robert Boyd Munger. This timeless piece led me to understand how Christ wanted to be present in every room of my heart.

PREPARING EMOTIONALLY HEALTHY LEADERS
Fuller has played an important role in the personal and professional lives of Cliff and Joyce Penner, and for many years they had discussed making a legacy gift to Fuller. Cliff and Joyce have included Fuller in their estate plans and are helping to raise funds for an endowed gift that would fund the training of emotionally healthy leaders.

A GIFT TO FUTURE GENERATIONS
John and Anne have many reasons for wanting to give back to Fuller. Their Fuller educations added dimensions to their life and ministry that they never would have known otherwise. They wanted to give back to Fuller, so future generations would have the same opportunities they had.

ACADEMIC WORK FOR A SPIRITUAL END
I came to Fuller Theological Seminary in 1983 as a visiting professor for one quarter and stayed for the rest of my teaching career. Fuller gave me opportunities to pursue my passion for teaching the Old Testament, to engage with students, to write, and to speak at international conferences about the Bible's relevance to our modern society.

A GIFT FOR FUTURE CHRISTIAN LEADERS
Fuller gave me theology and practice I could use as I worked in youth ministry in a local church. Under Dr. Robert Munger's influence, I learned the importance of building community and developing lay leadership in the congregations I served.
