About

As the John Carroll community celebrates by Honoring our Past with Founders' Day celebration events across the country, we look to Inspire our Future with our Day of Giving!  This online fundraising event brings together the entire JCU community - students, alumni, faculty, staff, friends, and the local community - in support of the University.  Reflect on your own JCU experience and help 

Our goal is to rally 1,886 donors between 2:00 p.m. on April 18 and 11:59 p.m. on April 19, 2024!  

Let's come together as Blue Streaks to showcase what inspires us and the John Carroll University of tomorrow. Day of Giving is about the strength of our collective impact - every person and every gift counts. Gifts of all sizes make a difference and you can make a gift to anything that Inspires YOU at JCU - a program, sports team, or student organization. Support at this critical time has a powerful and immediate impact. 

Make your impact at John Carroll University by Inspiring your classmates, family, and friends to support JCU's Day of Giving 2024!
