The J.E. and L.E. Mabee Foundation has awarded a $750,000 challenge grant in support of Ottawa University’s “Advancing the Vision” capital campaign for the University’s new Gangwish Library and Gibson Student Center. The combined project is expected to cost $10,000,000. The University has received over $6 million of the total requirement in gifts and pledges and now has one year to complete the remaining funding necessary to secure the Mabee challenge gift.
The new 43,000 square foot library and student center are to be built at the Ottawa, Kansas, home campus and will serve the entire university and the community with state-of-the-art technology, student services, dining, and conference amenities.
