Northwestern College to hold annual Day of Giving on Feb. 5

Northwestern College will hold its annual Day of Giving, ALLNDay, on Thursday, Feb. 5. The event encourages alumni, parents and friends of the college to be “all in” with their support for Northwestern.

This year’s ALLNDay places a special emphasis on participation, with challenges designed to engage as many members of the Northwestern community as possible. As gifts are received throughout the day, challenge funds will be unlocked at key milestones—$10,000 at 100 gifts, $25,000 at 250 gifts and $40,000 at 400 gifts—for a total of up to $75,000 in additional support for the college.

“ALLNDay isn’t about how much you give—it’s about being part of the day,” says Chris Jelken, coordinator of the annual fund. “Every gift, no matter the size, helps unlock additional support and amplifies the impact we can have for our students.”

ALLNDay will feature the “Raiders Across America” challenge, which encourages alumni, parents and friends to help achieve participation from all 50 states. In addition, donors can use their gift to vote for one of six “Eras of Excellence”: the 1960s and before, the 1970s, the 1980s, the 1990s, the 2000s, and 2010 to the present.

ALLNDay gifts may be made at any time via the Day of Giving website, allnday.nwciowa.edu. Updates on ALLNDay giving will be posted on the website throughout the day on Feb. 5.
