About

Today is Sewanee's eighth annual #TigerTuesday! We hope the entire Sewanee community of alumni, students, families, faculty, staff, and friends will join us to make this the biggest #TigerTuesday ever!

A generous alumnus has challenged the Sewanee family to help us reach our #TigerTuesday goals. First, every gift will be matched dollar for dollar up to $500,000. On top of that, if the campaign reaches 2,500 donors, an additional $500,000 will be unlocked and added to our #TigerTuesday total. With your help, we can make this the biggest #TigerTuesday to date!

Let's all come together to support Sewanee today and make this the biggest #TigerTuesday yet!

Updates
