PAA Donors

Why donate?

Thinking about giving back to the school that awarded you with the most prestigious Packaging degree in the country?  Donating to the MSU Packaging Alumni Association is an effective and easy way to do so.  As the oldest, largest, and most active of all Packaging alumni associations, the MSUPAA’s mission is to keep MSU the School of Packaging.  Funds donated go towards providing undergraduate and graduate student scholarships to the most ambitious and highest achieving current and future Packaging students.  We also subsidize student activities and trips, fortify the Director’s discretionary fund, and assist with upgrades to the physical School of Packaging building.  Your support ensures the best education and growth opportunities for students in the School of Packaging.
