On Tuesday, March 23, the ΒιΆΉΒγΑΔ community will come together to β€œGive Blue” during ΒιΆΉΒγΑΔ’s annual Giving Day.

There have been several Giving Day challenges created in the past to inspire the ΒιΆΉΒγΑΔ Community to reach the highest donor goal ever. While this year has already brought a host of unwanted challenges, these are some that we hope you will welcome:

  • If the goal of 900 donors is met by the end of Tuesday, March 23, it will unlock a $10,000 gift to ΒιΆΉΒγΑΔ from the officers of the Board of Trustees.
  • If 100 undergraduate alumni from the classes of 2011 through 2020 make a gift to ΒιΆΉΒγΑΔ by the end of Tuesday, March 23, Eleanor Manning Morrell WJC ’49 and Richard Morrell, HA ’96 will donate an additional $5,000 to ΒιΆΉΒγΑΔ.
  • If 250 alumni, faculty, professional staff, students, and families of the College of Arts and Sciences (CAS) make a Giving Day gift, CAS Dean Jonathan Millen will take a swim in the Saco River off of Freddy Beach by March 26.

Launched five years ago to inspire philanthropy to ΒιΆΉΒγΑΔ, #OneTwoGiveBlue Giving Day has become an annual day of celebration of what continues to make ΒιΆΉΒγΑΔ a special place for generations. For all members of the ΒιΆΉΒγΑΔ community, there is no better day to make a gift in any amount and to support any aspect of ΒιΆΉΒγΑΔ than Tuesday, March 23.

Your gift just might be the one that puts us over the top.
