It's Kent State's Day of Giving

Be the hero in someone's story. 

Day of Giving

Today is our 24-hour Day of Giving — part of Flashes Give Back Week, a weeklong celebration of all the ways Golden Flashes support our blue and gold communities.

You can be a hero by supporting scholarships and the ÂÌñÉçcauses that matter to you. Matching funds* are live now, helping double your impact! As a bonus, when you make a gift of $50 or more, you'll receive an exclusive, "flashy" pair of ÂÌñÉçsocks (limit one pair per donor while supplies last)!

Students: There's even more to get excited about this week! On Thursday, April 16, ÂÌñÉçcelebrates Thank-a-Giver (TAG) Day from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Risman Plaza. Stop by the K to share your gratitude for all those who support our community — and you could win a ÂÌñÉçmini fridge or the chance to be driven around campus in a golf cart for a day.

New this year is the TAG Day Scavenger Hunt! During TAG Day, eight Flashmallows will be hiding around the Kent Campus in locations made possible through philanthropy from generous ÂÌñÉçalumni and friends. Find one and bring it to the K at Risman Plaza for the chance to direct a $50 donation to the ÂÌñÉçcause or college scholarship of your choice. Follow @kentambassador on Instagram for clues leading up to the hunt!

Make your gift today before matching funds run out!

*Donations matched up to $250 per donor until matching funds are exhausted.
