UIS's second annual Day of Giving is next month! On March 25, we ask our entire community of supporters to make a gift to an area of campus that is meaningful to them. As a UIS employee, this is your chance to ask donors to make gifts to YOUR area of the University through a crowdfunding page.

These personalized pages give you the opportunity to highlight new and existing initiatives and projects in your unit. Tell your story and inspire donors to directly support your work!

What you need to sign up:

• An idea of how you would spend $1,000 - $2,000 – what could you do to enhance your unit with small, annual gifts?
• Your story – why is this important? What impact does this have on UIS students? The campus community? The greater community?
• Photos or videos to showcase the impact

Check out this guide for more information on how to make your page successful.

Click the button below to submit your crowdfunding page request. All submissions are due by February 13.

Whether you’ve never participated in crowdfunding before, or you’re a seasoned pro looking to enhance your page, we are happy to strategize with you. Reach out Kate Bolte at kate.bolte@uis.edu to talk more.

Last year, our first Day of Giving raised over $32,000 from 193 donors. This year, we expect even more and you don’t want to miss this chance for your unit to be represented.
