The big week is here, Beavers!
Coming on Thursday, Feb. 19, is Day of Giving — Bemidji State University's biggest and boldest fundraising day of the year.
So many people have poured in lots of work to make this day possible in order to benefit our students. But even still, Day of Giving is not something we can accomplish all on our own. That’s why we need you — not only as a donor, but also as an advocate.
Of course, we hope you'll consider making a gift on Thursday. But we're also calling you to take it a step further. Become an advocate within your circles, on your social media platforms, and among your fellow Beavers to promote the designation (or designations) that means most to you. We've built a toolkit to make it easy; just click the button below or visit bsualumni.org/dayofgiving/toolkit to see the resources we have ready for you.
The Advocate Toolkit is free to use and requires no sign ups or hassles. Simply visit the page and grab whatever you need from it. (And if you can’t find an answer, you can visit our primary Day of Giving page for more information at bsualumni.org/dayofgiving or email us at alumni@bemidjistate.edu.)
We’re all about community here at BSU, and now is the time to prove it. With a robust delegation of advocates — a group that’s only complete if it includes you — we’ll be ready to spread the news about Day of Giving far and wide.
