Christ-Centered, quality higher education producing servant leaders. We are #DBU.

[Dallas Baptist University @DBUPatriots]

Dallas Baptist University is excited to announce the launch of STAND FIRM. STAND OUT., a $60 million capital campaign benefiting @CarterSchoolDBU! We feel no business leader should have to choose between a candidate with an exceptional education or one with the heart of a servant leader—each is essential, and every single graduate should embody both.

The time is now for DBU to take bold steps to become a catalyst for that change. Join us as we equip and empower the next generation of servant leaders to stand firm and stand out.

The STAND FIRM. STAND OUT. campaign aims to raise funds for a new academic building to house the Carter School of Business, as well as student scholarships, program development, and faculty support.

At DBU, being a Patriot is about more than a mascot.

Being a Patriot is about pursuing excellence, leading with courage and conviction, serving others, and stewarding your God-given gifts to make an impact wherever you're called. These qualities blend seamlessly with the mission of DBU to produce Christ-centered leaders who integrate faith and deny self in service and sacrifice to others.

Hear from Matt Duce, Director of Athletics, on what it means to carry the Patriot spirit beyond competition and into every area of life.

Building Turner Hall, the home for the Carter School of Business, positions DBU to make a lasting impact by producing Christ-centered servant leaders for the marketplace and beyond”, said Dr. Adam C. Wright, President of Dallas Baptist University. "We are as thankful as we are encouraged by the contributions of the Mabee Foundation along with the investment from so many of our own DBU alumni toward this significant campaign.”

The Mabee Foundation has been a steadfast partner with DBU for over 30 years, supporting numerous campus projects including the John G. Mahler Student Center, Spence Hall, Patty and Bo Pilgrim Chapel, and Jim and Sally Nation Hall. Founded in 1948 by John and Lottie Mabee, the Foundation supports religious, charitable, and educational organizations across Arkansas, Kansas, Missouri, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Texas. Their challenge grants encourage widespread community support while helping organizations complete key capital projects in a timely manner.

Dallas Baptist University is honored to announce one of the largest gifts in DBU history from longtime friends and supporters Jim and Julie Turner in support of the Carter School of Business.

Their transformational investment in DBU's STAND FIRM. STAND OUT. capital campaign establishes the future home of the Don and Linda Carter School of Business: Jim and Julie Turner Hall. Within the walls of Turner Hall, the next generation of Christ-centered business leaders will be shaped through academic innovation and hands-on learning opportunities.

For decades, the Turners have faithfully supported Christian education, student scholarships, and the mission of DBU. Their legacy of generosity and servant leadership will continue to impact students, communities, and industries for generations to come.

“This is a moment of profound gratitude,” shared DBU President Dr. Adam C. Wright. “Because of Jim and Julie Turner’s leadership gift, the impact of this campaign and this business school will be amplified for future generations of Christ-centered leaders.”

We are deeply grateful for the Turner family’s unwavering faith, generosity, and commitment to advancing the Kingdom through Christian higher education.
