Alfred University Day of Giving is Tuesday, December 5

Alfred University will host its annual Day of Giving — “All In For Alfred” — on Founders Day, Tuesday, December 5.


Alfred University was founded on December 5, 1836, and for 1,836 minutes the University will go All In For Alfred in support of students.

“Philanthropy is an important part of our mission, as it supports our University’s efforts to help students realize their purpose,” said Mark Zupan, Alfred University president. “But the bigger reason behind our Day of Giving initiative is to spur engagement across our University community and with our alumni and friends.”

No gift is too small, and each one makes a meaningful impact on the student experience. Donors have the option of directing their gifts to the Alfred Fund or to areas of the University which reflect their interests.

Alfred University alumni, families, and friends are asked to connect with us on Instagram and Facebook. Follow along as we celebrate, sharing Student and Alumni videos of why they are #allinforalfred. Spread the word and share your #AllInForAlfred story. Check out the Day of Giving Toolkit to see how you can help promote All In For Alfred.
