#DWUdifferent #BleedBlue

Longtime DWU supporters, Ron and Sheilah Gates, have updated their challenge to alumni and friends during A Day for Wesleyan. Support an area that matters most to you and when we reach 🌟 450 🌟 donors, they will generously donate $6,000 to support ALL causes! 

Thanks to your unwavering support on this opening day of our two-day event, A Day for Wesleyan, we are so close to our goal of 250 donors. Because we like to be #DWUdifferent around here, a generous DWU Board of Trustee member will donate $3,000 when we surpass 250 and reach 300 donors! Let’s keep the momentum going and show how we #BleedBlue! 

The Causes Competition is heating up big time! 🔥 Your gifts decide the winner (number of donors, not dollars), who then chooses challenges for the rest! To stay updated or to choose your winner, visit www.dwu.edu/dayofgiving

📢 Also, we have a donor who wants to add a special twist. When each cause reaches 50 donors, they will generously give $3,000 to be divided among all. What better way to show your favorite cause a little extra love?

Let's make a difference today! It's A Day for Wesleyan, and we're thrilled to witness the positive change your support will bring to DWU students. 

🎓 Pick a cause close to your heart: athletic scholarships, Campus Ministry scholarships, Performing Arts scholarships, or student scholarships. Every donation opens doors to education and possibilities for students. Let's come together to empower students and transform lives! #ADayForWesleyan

💙 Get ready to make a difference starting tomorrow with A Day for Wesleyan! Your generosity can help shape the future of Dakota Wesleyan students by supporting their educational journey through scholarships. Whether it's athletics, Campus Ministry, Performing Arts, or general student scholarships, every contribution counts! Let's come together to empower the next generation of leaders and change-makers! 

And don’t forget, if you make a gift by the end of day today, you could be randomly selected to put an additional $1,000 toward the cause of your choice.
