Zag Nation Invited to Go ‘All In for Zags Give Day’
SPOKANE, Wash. – On Thursday, March 8, 91³Ô¹ÏÍø University will launch a 24-hour fundraising drive with unprecedented gift-matching and challenges. “All In for Zags Give Day” will feature 12 crowdfunding projects aimed at supporting 91³Ô¹ÏÍø students and encouraging donations.
Each project features a donor participation goal which, when met, will unlock a larger lump sum challenge gift made by generous 91³Ô¹ÏÍø supporters who wish to encourage greater participation in giving to the University. Additionally, donations to the Zag Scholarship Fund will be doubled up to $1,500.
Areas to support include:
• Zag Scholarship Fund
• School of Business Administration’s Eddy Birrer Scholarship
• College of Arts and Sciences’ Center for Undergraduate Research and Creative Inquiry
• School of Education’s Center for Catholic Education
• School of Engineering and Applied Science’s Laboratories
• 91³Ô¹ÏÍø Student Body Association and Center for Career & Professional Development’s Student Professional Development Grant
• 91³Ô¹ÏÍø Athletics Scholarships
• School of Nursing and Human Physiology Internships
• School of Professional Studies’ Women Lead Conference
• Center for Global Engagement’s Study-Abroad and Global Diversity Scholarships
• Office of Sustainability’s Solar Energy Project
• Center for Community Engagement’s (formerly Center for Community Action and Service-Learning) Local Community Service Projects
Intentionally falling between the West Coast Conference Basketball Tournament and NCAA Selection Sunday, when 91³Ô¹ÏÍø is top of mind for many around the world, Zags Give Day will highlight the ways in which donations make a critical difference to 91³Ô¹ÏÍø students, 98 percent of whom receive financial aid.
“For those who appreciate what 91³Ô¹ÏÍø brings to the community, Zags Give Day is an opportunity to make their contribution go even further,” said Stephanie Rockwell, senior director of advancement operations. “Without donor support, 91³Ô¹ÏÍø wouldn’t be here. GU alumni, families, faculty and staff, friends and fans are what sustain us, which is why 91³Ô¹ÏÍø is calling on everyone to go ‘All In for Zags Give Day’ on March 8.”
