Why Give to the Midland Institute for Entrepreneurship?
Every gift made to the Institute makes a difference and directly effects students all across the CEO network.
Our goal is to transplant the CEO Program across the United States. With your help, we are able to provide additional opportunities for CEO students.
Student Testimonials
"I want to get an inside look at local businesses. I plan on attending SIU Edwardsville for a business degree, and when I graduate, I want to manage my parents’ business, Pyramid Marble and Granite. I think this class has endless opportunities. It could open new doors for my career and life. I am blessed to reside in a town where the CEO teachers and business owners are willing to invest their time, money, and knowledge into this program. I know CEO will help prepare me for my future."
This class has changed me so much I forget how I used to be. It has changed how I think, communicate, and how I handle people. I never would have thought I would be able to talk to business people as I do. CEO has changed my entire outlook on life and I am very grateful for that.
The first semester of CEO has been beyond amazing. I have learned so much about myself and others. Visiting businesses around Jasper County has opened my eyes and shocked me over and over again. I have met so many amazing people through CEO. I feel that I have grown up so much over the past four months and I wouldn’t change my experience for anything.
The CEO class is teaching me a whole new approach to life: the entrepreneurial approach.

Gift Planning
Whether you want to support our mission today or design a plan that benefits students after your lifetime, you can feel good knowing that you are shaping the future. Once called "deferred giving" or "planned giving", gift planning refers to any charitable gift that requires more thought and planning to execute than the average donation.
