About


Together, We Make Dreams Possible!

Rollins Giving Day is more than a 24-hour fundraising event. It is a celebration of whatโ€™s possible when a community comes together to support student dreams.

Each year, alumni, parents, students, faculty, staff, and friends unite around a shared belief in the power of a Rollins education. Giving Day is an opportunity to turn that belief into action by supporting scholarships, academic excellence, experiential learning, and the programs that help students discover their purpose and prepare for meaningful futures.

This year, our goal is to reach 1,000 donors and unlock vital challenge funding made possible by generous supporters. Throughout the day, these challenges help amplify the collective impact of Giving Day and expand opportunities for students across campus.

You can help build momentum by spreading the word and inviting others to take part. Visit our social media toolkit for ready-to-share graphics, sample messages, and ways to champion Rollins Giving Day within your own networks.

Every gift and every shared message plays a role in strengthening the Rollins experience. Join us on February 19 and be part of a community that dreams boldly and helps those dreams take shape.
