About

Mountaineers know that App State is a place like no other.

Each year on iBackAPP day — the university’s largest giving celebration of the year — Mountaineers come together, united by their commitment to uplifting future generations. To put it simply, iBackAPP is a social-sharing, App State-wearing, philanthropic celebration of Appalachian State University and the people who make the Appalachian Experience possible!

All areas of campus participate in iBackAPP — from academic programs and student support programming to athletics and innovative initiatives — and we can't wait to see the many ways the Appalachian Community supports current and future Mountaineers.


Contributions are generally deductible for tax purposes. You will receive an electronic gift receipt for your records when you make a gift on iBackAPP day.
