BOLIVAR, Mo. – Southwest Baptist University will benefit from a recent grant to the Missouri Colleges Fund (MCF). This $16,000 grant underwrites the Commerce Bank MCF’s 16 member schools including SBU. These scholarships will be awarded by the member schools on the basis of financial need.
MCF member schools are independent baccalaureate degree-granting liberal arts and comprehensive colleges and universities in the state of Missouri. Their income is derived primarily from private sources.
The MCF was incorporated in 1952 as a partnership of private enterprise and the member independent colleges and universities in the Show-Me State. The Fund is a 501 (c) (3) tax-exempt corporation; therefore, all contributions to the Fund are tax-deductible up to the limits prescribed by the law.
