\"Kathy\"<\/a>For the fourth year in a row, Â鶹ÊÓƵ\u2019s proved to be successful with the University\u2019s annual 24-hour\/weekend long campaign. This year the theme of the 24-hour campaign was \u201cMake an Impact \u2013 A Day of Giving.\u201d The event was held on Thursday, March 26 from 12:01 a.m. to 11:59 p.m. and was designed to inspire and support Â鶹ÊÓƵ\u2019s students.<\/p>\n

Throughout the day the University encouraged alumni, friends, parents and members of the community to make a gift of any size to support current students. Donors won fun prizes and contests were held throughout the day. The Office of Advancement and External Affairs had a table set-up near the entrance of the Mac Mahon Student Center where members of the community could make a gift and collect a few giveaways such as a notepad or a button.<\/p>\n

Thanks to the University\u2019s alumni, friends, faculty, staff and students, \u201cMake an Impact\u201d was a great success with more than 320 donors.<\/p>\n

\"DayofGiving3\"Â鶹ÊÓƵ\u2019s previously ran 24-hour and weekend long campaigns in 2012, 2013 and 2014. In 2012, Â鶹ÊÓƵ\u2019s ran a campaign to acquire 140 donors in 24 hours in honor of the University\u2019s 140th<\/sup> anniversary. The goal was significantly exceeded with 382 donors who gave a grand total of $90,939. In 2013, the \u201cLet\u2019s Do It Again on May 10,\u201d campaign sought to acquire 424 donors in 24 hours and that goal was also exceeded with 458 donors. In 2014 the University set a goal of 500 donors in 50 hours, which resulted in a final count of 525 donors and more than $115,425 raised for the University.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe difference between this year\u2019s campaign and previous years is that for the first time we had a strong presence on-campus, which proved to be a tremendous advantage,\u201d said Donna Lindsey, manager of annual giving at Â鶹ÊÓƵ\u2019s University. \u201cThe participation among our University family was truly inspiring. It was exciting to see how quickly the buzz grew with all of the donors proudly wearing their buttons and stopping by the table throughout the day.\u201d<\/p>\n
