FRANKLIN, Ind. - Franklin College raised $364,266 during its 14th #GivetoGRIZ Day of Giving on Wednesday, April 15, marking the most successful single-day fundraising effort in the institution’s history. The total surpassed the campaign’s goal of $300,000.
The annual giving initiative mobilizes alumni, friends, and supporters to contribute to the Franklin Fund, which provides flexible support for student programs, academic initiatives, and institutional priorities.
“The impressive results of this year’s GivetoGRIZ campaign demonstrate the faith and generosity of so many alumni, friends, and corporate partners and their commitment to our students,” said Franklin College President Kerry N. Prather.
Elwood Staffing was a major sponsor for this year’s #GivetoGRIZ Day of Giving.
The one-day giving challenge began in 2013, raising $14,500 from 137 donors. Since then, it has grown each year in both participation and impact, reflecting the College’s expanding community of philanthropic champions.
Although this year’s #GivetoGRIZ event has concluded, supporters can still contribute to the Franklin Fund. To give online, visit franklincollege.edu/give or call (317) 738-8040.
