Anderson Hall has defined K-State's campus since 1884.
Today, it's deteriorating — and a rare opportunity to restore it permanently is on the table, but only until June 30, 2027. The 2024 Campus Restoration Act will release $24.4M in state funds the moment philanthropic giving reaches the same threshold.
Every dollar you give moves K-State closer to unlocking that investment. Miss the deadline, and the funding disappears.

Fundraising Deadline — June 30, 2027

Anderson Hall opened in 1884. It has outlasted wars, recessions, and generations of Wildcats.
What it can't outlast, however, is neglect.
The restoration ahead isn't just repairs — it's a deliberate act of stewardship, ensuring the building that has defined K-State's campus for 140 years is structurally sound and fully accessible for the next century.




The full roof, eaves and stonework will be replaced or restored using approved historical preservation techniques.


Entry & Accessibility
The building's entry walk-ups will be modified and modernized to improve access for all visitors while honoring the original architectural character.


Windows & Foundation
All 268 windows will be repaired or replaced to seal the building against weather and water damage.


Anderson Hall deserves to stand strong for the next 140 years — and the path to getting there has never been more clear or more affordable.
The 2024 Campus Restoration Act has set the conditions: raise $24.4M from private donors by June 30, 2027, and the state releases its full investment to complete the restoration.
The work is defined. The timeline is set. All that's missing is you.
