About

The Colgate Year-End Challenge: December 16–31, 2025

A dedicated group of Colgate alumni, parents, and friends has already pledged significant support for the Colgate Fund, setting the stage for the Colgate Year-End Challenge. Now, the University invites you to join them. Your gift, of any size, will harness the collective power of our community to amplify this initial generosity and achieve extraordinary results.

When you contribute to the Colgate Fund by December 31, 2025, your immediate, flexible support impacts every student and program, delivering an exceptional academic experience and expanding financial aid access for the best and brightest students to attend Colgate, through the Colgate Commitment. By joining the Colgate Year-End Challenge, you are helping to build a bright future for generations to come. Make your gift by December 31.

"I give to Colgate because I am incredibly grateful for where I am in life and Colgate was a major part of getting me here! And the most important thing I've learned through my first year on the Board is we can have 100% confidence that with our support, Colgate will provide similar opportunities to generations of students!!!!" - Gabe Schwartz '00
