Stand Up and Holler Gator Nation Giving Day
From the Nominator
The UF Stand Up and Holler: Gator Nation Giving Day is a 24-hour fundraising event, calling on all University of Florida alumni, students, faculty, staff, families, and friends to come together to support UF and all of its areas of positive impact in our state, nation, and world. Every gift made during this event counts towards the Go Greater campaign goal of $3 billion, and every dollar makes a different in the lives of current, past, and future students. It is a great demonstration of our mission to build a stronger future for the University of Florida, its students, and the people and places they will one day serve.
From the Judges
Great job engaging students to serve as ambassadors for the campaign. Cohesive and visually impressive branding. Great media kit. They empowered ambassadors to spread the word, and invited interaction that allowed the community to truly feel part of the campaign. They also successfully linked the power of tradition with the impact on future students. Outstanding results for first giving day: 2,500 new alumni donors, and doubled the gift and revenue goals.
