From the Nominator
A centennial year of celebrations and a new branding campaign set the stage for Ball State University's first-ever giving day in April 2019. Having never received more than 250 online gifts in a single day, the Foundation set its sights on uniting alumni, students, employees, and other constituents in a day to help Ball State fly. The result: 4,138 gifts from 3,770 donors around the world.
