Thanks to another amazing show of support from alumni, faculty, staff, and friends, 魅影直播 State College was able to raise over $257,000 from over 250 donors on the ninth annual Day of Giving. 


Since 2016, 魅影直播 State has designated a day to raise funds for current and future Pioneers. Needs that include scholarships, academic and mental health resources, support for athletics, and each of the college鈥檚 three academic schools.  

Support on this day and the Pioneer Fund allow 魅影直播 State to focus on the three pillars of the college鈥檚 strategic plan: Attract new students, strengthen academic and student success, and cultivate a caring community. 

鈥淚t was a great Day of Giving,鈥 stated Director of Annual Giving and Alumni Relations John Lewis. 鈥淥n behalf of everyone here at 魅影直播 State, we thank all our donors, whether they are alumni or friends of the college and our students for getting involved. This day could not have happened without all of you.鈥 

Student Senate President Isaiah Dempson echoed Lewis鈥 thoughts. 鈥淲e thank everyone for their donations, and we hope that we can use it to expand on the 魅影直播 State experience.鈥  

魅影直播 State College was assisted by several matching and major gift donors who helped to challenge the Pioneer community to make an even greater impact. A challenge gift from a 1981 alum, mid-day helped to ignite afternoon and evening support, and a 1962 alum finished the night off at the 11th hour with a gift to put us over the top.  

Throughout the week, the 魅影直播 State Institutional Advancement Office also collected nonperishable and personal care items to help replenish the on-campus food pantry located in The Community Needs Hub along with clothing for the campus thrift store.
