Break out your Fresno State Bulldog red for the University’s fourth annual Day of Giving on Tuesday, Nov. 17. The 24-hour online fundraising effort will begin at midnight on Nov. 17 through 11:59 p.m.
The campaign is focused on participation and how every donor counts. It’s not how much you give, it’s that you do!
Donors can support the college, school or the programs that matter most to them like the Fresno State Annual Fund, student research, scholarships, internship programs, innovative learning environments and much more. Funds raised will be used to help fulfill Fresno State’s mission “to boldly educate and empower our students for success.”
There will be 17 virtual programs for the public to view online, each are 30 minutes in length and available from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. focused on highlighting the participating areas of Day of Giving. Those interested can go to bit.ly/DOGVirtualEvents to register.
A live leaderboard will track progress throughout the day, providing real-time updates at dayofgiving.fresnostate.edu.
Schools, colleges, divisions and participating areas can earn bonus funds totalling $60,000 throughout the day to support campus programs. Challenges are designed to create engagement and awareness about the campaign throughout the 24 hours, including both hourly and daily challenges.
Please watch Fresno State’s social media channels (Facebook, Twitter and Instagram) throughout the day for the challenges and details on how to participate. Six random winners will be chosen during each challenge to have $500 donated to an existing fund. The challenges include:
- Midnight First Gift - The participating area that receives the first gift through the site and posted on the donor wall will receive bonus money.
- 5 - 9 a.m. Early Bird Challenge - Support any area of your choosing to help kick-off our giving day.
