The purpose of the Foundation is to promote and benefit Oklahoma State University through the development and management of private resources on behalf of the University. The Oklahoma State University Development Foundation was created by alumni in 1961 in cooperation with the university's Alumni Association. The name was changed to the Oklahoma State University Foundation on October 19, 1979. In 1992 a joint resolution was prepared which defined the relationship between the University and the Foundation, which is independent of the University.
