On Thursday, March 6, the global ���ϲ����� community will once again celebrate ���ϲ����� Day, an annual day of giving that inspires thousands of donors to support students and show their pride in the university. Over the years, ���ϲ����� Day donors have made gifts to funds across campus, including scholarships, academic schools, athletics, student organizations and more. Since ���ϲ����� Day began in 2014, donors have contributed a collective 51,000 gifts and $21 million in honor of the day.

���ϲ����� Day will also feature exciting matches, challenges and “Bonus Bucks” to help further donor impact throughout the day. Be sure to keep an eye on the  to view the latest information.

Those who want to get involved with ���ϲ����� Day and contribute in another meaningful way can sign up as ���ϲ����� Day Champions and Amplifiers. These groups play a huge role in making the day a success by rallying their networks to give and spreading the word about exciting giving incentives.

On campus and across the country, events will celebrate the day’s focus of philanthropy and school spirit. New this year, the Fac/Staff Lounge will bring ���ϲ�����’s faculty and staff to Young Commons for soda floats, outdoor lounge furniture, swag and a chance to enter to win a free vacation day when they make a gift.

For alumni, there will be ���ϲ����� Day events taking place across the country (and in London) to celebrate this day of giving in their cities. To see if your city is hosting an ���ϲ����� Day event this year, click here and scroll down to the “Alumni Events” section.
