In November 2022, an anonymous donor promised to deliver $2 for every $1 raised by McPherson College up to a maximum gift of $500 million. By June 30th, the final day of the matching period, the college had secured $342 million in outside pledges which enable them to receive the full amount of the initial donation. The anonymous donor then pledged an additional $500 million estate gift to the college. This resulted in the McPherson endowment growing to $1.59 billion, making it one of the largest endowments of a small liberal arts college in the United States.
