On March 1, the Â鶹ÊÓƵ community around the world will celebrate Â鶹ÊÓƵ Day, the university’s annual day of giving.
Â鶹ÊÓƵ Day, a daylong celebration that encourages engagement and philanthropy among all members of Â鶹ÊÓƵ’s global community, is set for Tuesday, March 1. Alumni, students, parents, faculty, staff and friends can participate by making a gift to the university, attending on-campus and regional alumni chapter events and sharing their Â鶹ÊÓƵ pride on social media.
As in years past, donors will be able to make gifts toward specific areas of campus that mean the most to them. That includes student scholarships, academic schools and departments, the Phoenix Club (Â鶹ÊÓƵ Athletics), the Black Alumni Scholarship, affinity networks and student organizations. Â鶹ÊÓƵ Day gifts of all sizes and designations will count toward this year’s total and combine with all other Â鶹ÊÓƵ Day gifts to ensure that students get the most out of their Â鶹ÊÓƵ experience. Each gift will also count toward the $250 million goal for the Â鶹ÊÓƵ LEADS Campaign.
Â鶹ÊÓƵ Day officially began in 2014 in honor of the university’s 125th-anniversary celebration. Since then, Â鶹ÊÓƵ Day’s momentum and impact have grown year after year. Last year, donors gave more than 5,600 gifts totaling nearly $3.5 million, a new record.
The Â鶹ÊÓƵ community can also participate in Â鶹ÊÓƵ Day events on campus and around the world. A list of campus events can be found here. In addition, events for alumni will take place in more than 40 cities around the world. These events will bring the momentum of the day directly to the Â鶹ÊÓƵ alumni network. A full list of regional alumni events will be released in February.
On Â鶹ÊÓƵ Day 2022, let’s show the world that Â鶹ÊÓƵ LEADS Through Us!
