Originally launched on Founders Day for Dean’s 150th anniversary in 2015, the Global Days of Giving have since become an annual event. 2022 marks the eighth year that alumni, parents, students, faculty, staff and friends all come together to support an area or fund at Dean during the same time.
Since 2015, more than $1.7 million has been raised and over 50 funds have been supported through the Global Days of Giving. Last year, we saw the most donors to-date. Just as in years past, all donations made during this year’s Global Days of Giving will be matched dollar-for-dollar, up to $100K, by an anonymous donor. After crossing the $100K mark, all new donations will be matched dollar-for-dollar, up to $50K, by an anonymous donor. On top of this match, this year includes the 1,000 Donor Unlock Challenge, where reaching 1,000 donors will unlock an additional $50K for Dean.
The days also feature a friendly competition among Dean’s athletic teams, as they go head-to-head in the . The team who finishes with the most donors will earn the honor of “Top Dog” and an additional $1K for their fund. This year, the softball team took home the honor of “Top Dog.”
