About

THE GOAL

In honor of our 137 year history, we are asking 1,370 Loggers to Come Together to Make a Lasting Impact! Will you rise to the challenge?

LOGGER DAY CHALLENGE is a day of pride and philanthropy. Today, for 24 incredible hours, Loggers unite to reach new heights. It is an opportunity to come together to support each other, our community, and the university we love. Join your fellow Loggers as we come together and see how our collective spirit transforms into extraordinary impact.

Every gift, every share, every Logger matters. Once a Logger, always a Logger!
