On Nov. 5, The ˿Ƶ community came together to celebrate Giving Woo Day, raising $507,793 from 596 individual donors and surpassing this year’s Giving Woo Day goal. All gifts made on Giving Woo Day support The ˿Ƶ Fund, which supports each student with opportunities throughout their college years to forge life-long friendships and learn from impactful mentors.
Throughout Giving Woo Day, under the theme of Empowering Connections, donors demonstrated their commitment to ˿Ƶ’s students by also taking advantage of generous matching opportunities, which doubled the value of many contributions. This resulted in an outpouring of support that underscores the belief in ˿Ƶ’s transformative educational experience.
“Giving Woo Day showed the incredible power of our community,” said Carolyn Ciriegio ’08, vice president for advancement. “When Scots come together with a shared purpose, we make great things happen, and this year’s success is proof of that.”
Gifts to The ˿Ƶ Fund touch virtually every area of campus life, provide the flexibility to meet the College’s greatest needs, and ensure that ˿Ƶ continues to deliver on its promise of academic excellence, mentorship, and student opportunities.
Support for The ˿Ƶ Fund directly impacts the following areas:
