Purdue Day of Giving
April 25, 2018 | Purdue Day of Giving is an annual university-wide effort to build a better, stronger, more affordable Purdue. For 24 hours, students, alumni, faculty, staff, parents, and friends come together to grant opportunities and transform lives. Through challenges, interactive leaderboards, and a little good old-fashioned rivalry, help push Purdue Veterinary Medicine to the top!
Faculty and staff can participate by giving between 9am-10am using this link. New and increased payroll deduction gifts count too! Use this form (PDF) to sign up today or visit Giving.Purdue.edu/Payroll to enroll online.
Anyone can join us for our Love a Lab(rador retriever) event at Memorial Mall. For any donation, you can pet one of PVM's own labs. We'll be out on Memorial Mall from 10am-1pm, so come out and say hello!
If you would like to participate online, be sure to include #PurdueDayofGiving and #PurdueVetMed in any of your social media posts. And if you participate in the contests below, make sure your posts are set to public.
