Giving Day 2025
Let's go BIG for HGSE!
On March 26, our community will unite for 24 hours of generosity during HGSE's annual Giving Day. With a $15,000 challenge match on the line, your early gift can give us a head start. Join us and kick-start something big today!
$3,369.40
We are a small school with a mighty reach, and our annual Giving Day is one day when the entire community — alumni, faculty, staff, students, and friends — comes together to help make a huge impact. Back again this year, your gift will go even further thanks to the Dean’s Leadership Council, who are matching the first $15,000 raised on Giving Day.
Hey Students!
Your gift to support the Class Gift initiative can also count toward HGSE’s Giving Day. Thank you for joining your classmates, generations of proud alumni, and friends in making a difference for future HGSE students.
Spread the word
HGSE Giving Day is about the power of community. Sharing with your network is one of the easiest — and most important ways — you can support HGSE. Use our ambassador toolkit to spread the word!

Your gift today supports the HGSE Fund — an essential resource that helps us do big things. It touches every corner of campus, from financial aid to building enhancements. Because HGSE Fund gifts are unrestricted and can be used immediately, they empower the school to respond to pressing needs and emerging opportunities. Think of the HGSE Fund as a quiet overachiever: seldom in the spotlight, yet vital to HGSE’s budget and everyday success.
The Dean’s Leadership Council has graciously offered a dollar-for-dollar match — up to $15,000 — to inspire participation during HGSE’s annual Giving Day. Every dollar you give will go twice as far!
As HGSE’s largest annual fundraising body, the Council has contributed nearly $1.4 million in unrestricted support over the past three years, enabling the school to focus more deeply on its core priorities, most notably, increasing financial aid for HGSE students.
Every person who makes a Giving Day contribution (even if you give early!) will be included on our “Gold Star” list. To reflect early donations, the list will be updated on March 5, March 12, March 19, and March 24.
On Giving Day, the list will be updated four times (ET): 9 a.m., 12 p.m., 4 p.m., and 8 p.m. Any donations after 8 p.m. will be added to the list on March 27.
Help us spread the word! Use our ambassador toolkit to access social media posts, graphics, and other assets that will help you amplify HGSE’s Giving Day to your personal and professional networks. (Bonus points if you post that charming throw-back photo of you on campus.)
The 1920 Society includes our most committed donors who give at the leadership level (minimum of $1,000 annually), make a recurring gift of any amount, or leave a legacy gift to the school. Members included in our annual 1920 Society Honor Roll and enjoy other membership benefits.
