Why should I participate?

Your support provides critical resources that nurture the university’s growth and success as a first-class institution. Your gift supports scholarships, academic programs, experiential learning, and/or student life. Monmouth Giving Days aren't just for alumni. It takes the collective annual support of alumni, parents, friends, students, faculty, and staff to make the Monmouth experience possible for our current and future Hawks. There is no better day to maximize your impact than on Giving Days, as Challenges and Matches will help you make the most of your annual gift.

I already gave to Monmouth. Why am I being asked to give again?

Philanthropic support makes a difference through Monmouth's campus and programs. We are appreciative of all our current donors, but ask that you consider making a one-time, additional gift to Monmouth University during Giving Days in order to help maximize the impact of matches and challenges. There's a lot to be proud of at Monmouth, and every dollar helps us to create and enhance the educational experience for our students.
