Butler Day of Giving

If Butler University receives 1,855 gifts on Day of Giving, $100,000 will be unlocked in support of the Butler Fund for Student Scholarship. These dollars will provide vital financial aid to help students pursue their dreams at Butler. Make your mark today and help unlock opportunities for Butler students!

Dean Howard is challenging all LAS faculty and staff! If 100 LAS faculty and staff make a gift on Day of Giving, in any amount to any area, $2,500 will be unlocked for the LAS Dean's Priority Needs Fund. The LAS Dean’s Priority Needs Fund supports students and faculty in the College by funding initiatives such as student travel to conferences, research software and equipment, and course development or revision.

We at Butler Libraries have long discouraged jumping in the Irwin fountain for a variety of reasons, but we offer a compromise in the spirit of Day of Giving for the benefit of the Class of 2025: if Butler Libraries receives at least 50 gifts across Day of Giving 2025, we will host an event at Irwin ahead of Commencement Weekend in May where you can have your graduation photos taken in the Irwin fountain. Library staff and faculty will volunteer to monitor the event and keep everyone safe - if the Butler community can come through on Day of Giving to unlock this special event!
