Giving Tuesday Registration for Student Orgs

Fundraise for your student org on Giving Tuesday! This year, U-M will be highlighting fully-fundable, project-based campaigns from across all areas of U-M (e.g. $500 for tournament registration fees OR $2,000 for travel costs). We will have challenges and matches for campaigns that successfully meet their goals on Giving Tuesday. 

Why should I participate? Fund your org’s upcoming project, competition, or other specific needs by fundraising on Giving Tuesday. Last year, 50 student orgs raised over $149,000 — an average of $2,980 per org!

Any Sponsored Student Organization that wants to participate will submit an application by Sunday, October 4 to be included on the Giving Tuesday page. Some projects will be selected to be featured at the top of the U-M Giving Tuesday fundraising page, giving your project increased visibility. If your project is not selected or you wish to fundraise but don’t have a specific project to fundraise for, you will still be included further down on the Giving Tuesday page. Register by Sunday, October 4.
