UPDATE - THANK YOU TO THE SOUTHWESTERN COMMUNITY!

Thanks to our donors, ambassadors, and everyone who helped us reach 1,000 donors! 

Southwestern Giving Day is here!

On March 5th and 6th from noon to noon, we have set the ambitious goal of engaging 1,000 donors to support Southwestern's students and faculty. Whether you choose to support academics, fine arts, athletics, or our areas of greatest need, you will lift up all of Southwestern. Make your gift now!

A new challenge! Help us unlock $50,000!

Thank you to all of our donors, ambassadors and advocates who have participated in Giving Day so far! 

We have an exciting update to share with you - Lynn Parr Mock '83 and Presley Mock '82 have challenged the Southwestern community to complete our Giving Day goal. They have pledged $50,000 if we get 250 more donors before noon! This would get us right over 1,000 donors for Giving Day. We're already part of the way there - we're currently at 790 donors!

If you've already made your gift, we're asking you to help by sharing this wonderful opportunity with your networks by email, social media, text, any way you can!

The place to go is still givingday.southwestern.edu. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to southwesternfund@southwestern.edu

Giving Day starts at noon today!

Southwestern Giving Day begins today at noon! For 24 hours, the entire Southwestern community will come together to #LiftUpSU by making a gift to the part of campus that means the most to them. Our goal is to reach 1,000 donors by noon on Wednesday, March 6! 

To help us properly launch our first-ever Giving Day, President Edward Burger has pledged to give $25 for each donor until we reach our 1,000 donor goal! There are a number of other matching gift opportunities - check them out on the left side of the page! 

Stay tuned here and on our social media board for more updates throughout the day!
