AIC Gives set for February 29
SPRINGFIELD, Massachusetts – This Thursday, February 29, is Leap Day: a once-in-four-years opportunity for a day unlike the rest. It is also the day for AIC Gives, another opportunity for a day to make something special happen.
"Our ability to create an amazing student-athlete experience and set our Yellow Jackets up for success requires so many people to be committed to excellence," noted Director of Athletics Jessica Chapin. "Last year, AIC Gives raised a record amount for the College and particularly for our Athletic Department, and this year we are asking the entire Yellow Jackets family to take the leap and join us in reaching new heights."
AIC's community came together in a big way in 2023, raising $403,048, a 98 percent increase from the prior year, thanks to contributions from 1,447 donors, which was a 21 percent boost from 2022. Donors came from all walks of life and around the world, with 39 US states and 12 different countries represented among the supporters of the College.
As in years past, donations can be targeted to specific areas. Whether you have a certain team you wish to support, or a department on campus, or simply wish to contribute to the College generally, your donation will make a difference in the experience of AIC's students, helping set them up for success now and throughout their lives.
On February 29, we ask you to take the leap with us by visiting www.givingday.aic.edu and making a donation.
