Boise State University will hold its first giving day on Thursday, Sept. 13, to engage alumni, donors and friends to support the university’s students and programs through philanthropic gifts. On Bronco Giving Day, a 36-hour online giving campaign will provide quick, online access for donors to support several key initiatives within the colleges, athletics, departments and other units.
We’re asking all Broncos and friends from all over the world to support an area of Boise State that is meaningful to them. Throughout the day, live leaderboards will show the progress of the giving day where donors and alumni can watch in real-time the impact of their giving toward the final results of the day’s progress.
Your gift on Bronco Giving Day will have a bigger impact thanks to generous Bronco supporters who fund multiple challenges. These challenges will have double the impact, as some matching gifts will be implemented, adding to the excitement of the day.
Major gift support of a giving day drives up giving totals and helps to ensure the giving day is a highly visible celebration of the institution and the generosity of those who support the institution. If you would like to support the Bronco Giving Day with a generous match, contact Cara Walker, senior director of annual giving, at carawalker@boisestate.edu.
You also can support Bronco Giving Day by becoming one of several giving day social media ambassadors where you’ll have access to a personal dashboard with special social media tools that make it even easier to reach and share the excitement with your network. For more information on becoming an ambassador, contact Andrew Gauss, senior director of advancement communications, at andrewgauss@boisestate.edu.
Every gift will make a difference, regardless of the size. Mark your calendars for Sept. 13 and join us for the first Bronco Giving Day.
