The seventh annual #WarriorsGive fundraising campaign that concluded on Nov. 14 generated $84,629, including an anonymous matching gift of $21,629. Of the total raised, 63% is restricted for athletics and 37% for scholarships. Nearly 400 donors participated in the four-day online giving campaign—72% were Eastern alumni.
The Accounting Program, with $5,150 from 10 donors was the top performing academic program. Men’s lacrosse, field hockey and softball divided $5,000 in incentive dollars for having the highest alumni participation numbers. Lacrosse led with 57 alumni donors to win the Athletic Director’s Challenge.
“We were once again pleased with the response from our alumni and friends during the #WarriorsGive Big Match Days campaign,” said Joe McGann, Director of Institutional Advancement. “From the bottom of our hearts, thank you to everyone who donated during #WarriorsGive!”
McGann noted that last year’s campaign (2021) was a record-setting year due in large part to two matching gifts. In next year’ campaign, Institutional Advancement hopes to add a second match like prior years.
