Support student success through MSU Denver’s Day of Giving

Now is your chance to make an impact by participating in this year’s annual fundraising event.

MSU Denver Day of Giving

Student success is the grand prize from the annual Metropolitan State University of Denver Day of Giving on March 20.

Faculty and staff members can support the campus area they are most passionate about by making a gift online or enrolling in/increasing their monthly payroll deduction. Your Day of Giving support is the winning answer that will help the University reach its goal of 1,400 donors.

You can contribute to a successful Day of Giving by: 

  1. Making a gift to a featured Day of Giving project.
  2. Supporting the sixth annual Roadrunners Athletics Giving Challenge with a gift to help your favorite sports program score bonus funds.
  3. Inspiring others to contribute to the Philanthropy Fund at any time. These gifts will be used to set up match and challenge gifts for featured Day of Giving projects.   
  4. Signing up as a Day of Giving advocate to spread the word on social media. You could win big in two ways:  
    • Registered advocates who bring in five Day of Giving gifts will be entered into a drawing for a chance to win a Nintendo Switch Lite.  
    • Registered advocates who bring in seven Day of Giving gifts will receive a MSU Denver scarf.  
  5. Participating in events on Day of Giving. 

Now is the time to help us reach our goal. When you make your Day of Giving gift today, you’re ensuring that current and future Roadrunners hit the jackpot by achieving their goal of earning a degree.   

Making a difference in one day. That’s possible because of Changemakers like you!
