COLUMBIA, Mo. — The University of Missouri Department of Intercollegiate Athletics has received a historic $62 million philanthropic commitment to support renovations to Memorial Stadium and the Department’s Tiger Fund program, Director of Athletics Desireé Reed-Francois announced Monday. The gift commitment is the largest received by Mizzou Athletics in the university’s history.
The donor, who wishes to remain anonymous, has designated $50 million for the Memorial Stadium Improvements project to modernize Mizzou Football’s home stadium, including the redevelopment of the North Concourse and other stadium upgrades. The remaining $12 million will go toward Mizzou’s Tiger Fund — a charitable program through the Tiger Scholarship Fund that benefits Mizzou student-athletes.
The $62 million commitment is more than double Mizzou Athletics’ prior record gift received in 2012.
