Support ȺpÎÞÂë on March 27 - Day of Giving

On March 27, ȺpÎÞÂë will hold its annual Day of Giving, an annual 24-hour blitz of school spirit and generosity, with the entire Lewis community joining forces to support 25 funds, programs, clubs, and scholarships that directly impact the Flyer experience.  

This year’s Day of Giving theme is “Let’s Turn Up the Volume!” a nod to the collective power of social giving and Flyer pride, with a bit of musical flair.  

Beginning at 9 a.m., students, faculty, staff, and friends are welcome to stop by Stritch Hall on the Lewis campus to enjoy snacks, make gifts, and enjoy the fun.  

A pair of signature 2025 Day of Giving socks will be given for any gift of $25 or more.  

At 2 p.m., ȺpÎÞÂë President Dr. David Livingston will address those gathered at Stritch Hall and report on the progress of the day’s efforts.
