For 27 hours next week, you’ll have the unique opportunity to show your support for Vassar's student-athletes. Beginning at 9am on Wednesday, February 7, Vassar’s 27 teams will have 27 hours to score 270 gifts. If 270 donors help us reach our goal, Jim Citrin '81 will donate $10,000 to support our student-athletes! Plus, the team with the highest percentage of donors will win an additional $5,000, thanks to Brian Gilmore '92!
After you make your own gift, we hope you will help us spread the word by using the digital resources provided on our #27for270 online social media tool kit. Just click the button below to access the tool kit.
What tremendous support! President Bradley and our student-athletes are thrilled by your generosity! Thank you to all our alumnae/i, current parents, alumnae/i parents, students, family members, friends, coaches, faculty, staff, and administrators who have already given. We can't do it without you!
The challenge continues until tomorrow at 12:00 PM EST. How far can we go for our Brewers and our College!?
Michelle Walsh issued a challenge to our 27 teams. The first team to get 250 gifts would be awarded $500!
The competition was fierce!
We have a tie at the finish!! Vassar College Rugby and Vassar Baseball both came in at 5:35 simultaneously, so both teams get $250 for 250 donors! Awesome job to both teams!! Go Brewers!!
Michelle Walsh, Director of Athletics & Physical Education, is offering her own challenge! She will give $500 to the team that reaches 250 donors first. Make it YOUR team by giving now!

The Brewers community is incredible! You just helped secure another $5,000 from generous parent donors. Keep it up, Brewers!
Our next challenge has arrived, and the bar has been set even higher! Generous parent donors want to keep the momentum going; they will give $5,000 if we reach 1,500 donors. Go Brewers!
We did it! Over 555 donors gave to support our Brewers and to secure President Bradley’s $5,000 challenge. Thank you!
The #27for270 Challenge is off to an amazing start! President Bradley is so excited that we reached our initial goal of 270 donors so quickly that she has issued a new challenge: if the Brewers community can reach 555 donors (one gift for every student-athlete) she will give another $5,000 in support of the Brewers Fund! 2498 days ago by Jen Castellani
