K-State Proud, a student-led philanthropic campaign at Kansas State University has raised $1,030,000.

Guided by the leadership of the K-State Student Foundation, the campaign encourages students to show their K-State pride through philanthropy. All campaign donations support Student Opportunity Awards for fellow Kansas State University students who have exhausted all other forms of financial aid.

This year’s elected K-State Proud co-chairs include Christine Caban, Junction City; Taylor Fry, Great Bend; and Luke Schnefke, Shawnee. K-State Student Foundation President Katie Ahern, Overland Park, and Student Foundation Vice President of Campaigns Alec Khoury, Wichita also helped lead this year’s campaign.
