Mission:
The mission of the LSU Foundation is to foster private financial support for LSU, the LSU Agricultural Center, the LSU Paul M. Hebert Law Center and the LSU System Office. The Foundation encourages and receives philanthropic gifts and bequests, including both restricted and unrestricted gifts. The Foundation also manages the investment of endowed funds and other private assets.
Gifts to the foundation add a margin of excellence over and above the appropriate level of state support and are not intended to replace state funds. Most important, behind every gift to the Foundation is an individual or organization determined to advance the quality of education.
