Raise the Bar, Together
At Darden, we never settle. On Day for Darden 2025, our community will come together to push boundaries and reach our ambitious goals: 1,500 donors and $1.25 million raised. Your support can help unlock a one-time matching opportunity from the Chair of the Darden School Foundation Board of Trustees. Frank (MBA '94) and Julie Sands will match $100 per donor, up to 1,500 donors!
Your gift can help raise the bar:
- For Your Class: Help your class top the leaderboards and surpass last year's participation!
- For Your Cause: Give to the areas you care about most - scholarships, faculty, sustainability, career support and more!
- For Your Impact: Matching gift opportunities are available today, helping your generosity go even further!
Every gift to the Darden Annual Fund goes to work immediately and fuels the transformative Darden experience, helping shape the leaders of tomorrow.
