GivingTuesday: When Gratitude Meets Generosity
November 28, 2023 | Rebecca Richards
The tradition of GivingTuesday did not start until nearly 400 years after the first Thanksgiving. Despite its relatively young age, GivingTuesday has grown…“Friends of academic excellence and academic freedom have something new to be excited about: the Fund for Academic Renewal. The Fund supports and encourages the creation of centers of excellence at colleges and universities around the country. It provides alumni and other supporters with an opportunity to put their generosity to work in ways that are consistent with their values and which reflect their belief in high standards of scholarship and teaching.”
