Photo of the Week: Day of Giving supports current and future Roadrunners

Campus leaders face off in a fun-filled battle of brains and school spirit

From online giving and a game-show themed telethon to an e-sports tournament and an on-campus Day of Giving Village, MSU Denver’s annual Day of Giving on March 20 raised funds that will ensure the success of current and future Roadrunners.

An event highlight, the MSU Denver Board of Trustees faced off against the MSU Denver Foundation Board in a spirited game of “Rowdy Family” (pictured below). The competition spanned seven rounds, with questions covering categories like athletics, academics, campus and more. After a close contest, the Foundation Board emerged victorious, proudly claiming this year’s bragging rights.

A full recap of the campaign, fundraising events and impact will be posted to the Early Bird site once results are finalized.
