One Day for Orange! #CuseGivingDay Brought Extra Energy to Schine and Support for Students
A huge shoutout to our amazing Orange community for making Syracuse University Giving Day a success! Thanks to 7,229 generous donors, we raised an incredible $1.68M—and counting!—to support every corner of the University. The numbers are still going up, with contributions from all 50 states and 16 countries. Special thanks to 2,045 alumni, 1,008 students and 994 faculty and staff for giving back!
The Class of 2025 takes the crown for most donors and the Class of 1968 had the most funds raised.
In the Schine Student Center, 38 student groups tabled throughout the day and inspired a 294% increase in donor participation for the student organization challenge, raising dollars for their specific projects. Schine also hosted tabletop games, giveaways and free food. If you didn’t catch the 15 live shows broadcast throughout the day, featuring 10 student co-hosts and 17 guests, you can find them next week on the Alumni YouTube channel.
Syracuse Giving Day wouldn’t have been possible without the power of Orange:
- Personal link sharing resulted in 996 donors and more than $75,000 dollars
- 185 people made their first-ever gift to Syracuse University
- All 13 schools and colleges hosted events or tabled throughout the day
- 38 challenges and matches inspired others to give back
- Three teams of Spirit Squad members in golf carts handed out swag, stamp cards and candy
- Four alumni clubs in New York City, Atlanta, Tampa Bay, and South Florida hosted Giving Day events.
Thank you for making Syracuse Giving Day a day to remember! It wouldn’t be One Day for Orange without YOU!
