Last year, 132 employee donors went All In for The Drake Fund in the 24-hour fundraising campaign. This year, the All In campaign has set a goal to have more than 500 donors donate over $100,000 in the 24-hour period.

The faculty and staff social will be Tuesday, April 4, from 4-6 p.m. in Parents Hall South. We’re excited to involve students in this social because, for the first time ever, they are participating in the All In campaign as well.

A few challenges have been set for faculty and staff only. All members (students, faculty, and staff) of the campus community who give during the campaign will be entered into a drawing for a homemade pie hand-delivered to their office from Provost Mattison. The drawing will be held at the April 4 social event and you must be present to win. Staff member Niki Smith, JO’08, GR’15, will donate $1 for every faculty and staff who give during the campaign. Finally, the first 50 faculty and staff donors will receive a special prize delivered to them.

For now, you can like the Facebook page, RSVP to the Facebook event, and invite your friends to go All In with you.
