Scarlet & Give Back Day returns!
As Grinnellians, coming together to have a collective impact on the things we believe in has long been a source of pride and inspiration — and we are never stronger than when the cause we rally behind is the strengthening of our own community.
This Scarlet & Give Back Day, we have the opportunity to demonstrate our collective strength; to combine our skills and resources to support each other, the students of today and tomorrow, and ultimately, to have an impact on the entire world.
Join us as we come together again! Our collective effort will mean twice as much this year — an anonymous donor is offering a dollar-for-dollar match on every gift to Grinnell College, up to $500,000. You direct your gift to the fund or program that is meaningful to you, the matching gift donor will direct an equal amount to the fund or program they find most meaningful at the College.
Together, we can provide more access and create even greater opportunities for students to succeed academically, professionally, and personally — and to go forth and change the world.
Please make a Scarlet & Give Back Day gift today to maximize our community impact by taking advantage of this generous dollar-for-dollar gift match.
