Thank you to the entire Rutgers community

for making Rutgers Giving Days a success!

We’re grateful to everyone who participated in Rutgers Giving Days. Whether you made a gift or shared the excitement across social media, you helped us show that Rutgers is more than a place—it’s a place where people and ideas flourish.

In just 48 hours, on March 20 and 21, we raised $600,739 to help us build the future that New Jersey and our nation need now. Rutgers and its community of students, alumni, faculty, staff, and friends lead the way by acting on our shared values: access to academic excellence, building community, and a commitment to the common good.

If you didn’t get the chance to contribute during Rutgers Giving Days, but you’d still like to make a gift, you can still make one today and direct it to the Rutgers area you care about most.

No matter what day of the year you give, a donation to Rutgers:

  • creates access to a world-class education that changes lives, one student at a time.
  • instills in our students a commitment to community through service and experiences that contribute to a greater understanding of themselves and others.
  • opens new possibilities in life-saving research that moves from our labs to patients’ bedsides.



Thank you again for putting our shared values into action through Rutgers Giving Days.

Together, we are Rutgers University. Together, WE ARE YOU.

Rutgers is committed to driving inclusive access for students, with an aspiration to be the national model for outstanding academic programs, social mobility, and educational equity with purposeful and timely degree completion, career preparation, and lifelong learning.

Rutgers endeavors to instill in our students a commitment to community through service and experiences that contribute to a greater understanding of themselves and others, support their whole person while students at Rutgers, and provide meaningful engagement post-graduation.

Rutgers believes that the work we do through the excellence of our health systems, scholarly research, and outreach programs propels the creation, sharing, and application of knowledge, and our collaborations with local and global partners address societal challenges and improve the lives of people in New Jersey and beyond.
