About


Together, We Support What Matters Most.

On Rollins Giving Day, supporting the Rollins Fund is one of the most powerful ways to help students succeed. Gifts to the Area of Greatest Need ensure that Rollins can respond quickly and thoughtfully to the opportunities and challenges students face today.

Because these funds are flexible, they provide immediate support where it is needed most. From enhancing academic programs to strengthening student experiences and campus resources, the Rollins Fund helps ensure that every Tar has the tools to explore their interests, pursue excellence, and prepare for meaningful futures.

This year, Giving Day is about coming together as a community to turn shared belief into action. When 1,000 members of the Rollins community make a gift, Trustee Campbell Brown โ€™90 Pโ€™28 will donate $100,000 to the Rollins Annual Fund, strengthening support where it is needed most.

Every gift plays a role in strengthening the Rollins experience. Join us on February 19 and help ensure that student dreams continue to take shape.
