Allen Access Program Endowment Fund
The Allen Access Program seeks to identify barriers to student success by providing scholarships, programming and other support for underresourced students at Trulaske. Initiatives include supplying funding for laptops, professional attire and tuition assistance to ensure student success and career readiness. The program also focuses on outreach in the State of Missouri to expose more middle and high school students to the opportunities that exist at Trulaske and at Mizzou. Additional funding will help create a clear path to Missouri’s flagship university and its college of business.
