Day Of Giving

Welcome to Day of Giving!

Join us as we continue to honor our university's founding with not just 24 hours of giving, but 1,928 minutes of giving! Our celebration will start at 7 a.m. on Thursday, April 25 and wrap up at 3:08 p.m. on Friday, April 26.

Day of Giving spotlights student experiences, student support initiatives, and scholarships that make our university so special. It not only allows you to learn about how our institution uplifts and equips students for life after college – it allows you to personally shape their student experience, and their future.
