The Greater Panhandle A & M Fund was established in 1961. In 1962, the name was changed to PAMC Foundation. The official name "Panhandle State Foundation" was adopted in 1967. The Panhandle State Foundation was established by friends and alumni of PAI, PAMC, PSC, and Oklahoma Panhandle State University. It is a non-profit 501(c) 3 organization with a mission to aid the university beyond the funding it receives from the State of Oklahoma. While the Foundation has as its primary goal support of scholarships, it is also involved in other areas of support. There is annual support for professional development of faculty and staff. Several farm and campus improvements have been made possible by grants received from private sources. Both the Noble Center and the Student Apartments projects have been aided by the Foundation. In the future, as in the past, the Panhandle State Foundation will continue to play a vital role in supporting the university mission to provide educational experiences that are designed to enrich the personal lives of students and to prepare them for roles in agriculture, business, education, government and industry.
