And this year\u2019s goal \u2014 3,000 gifts to areas across the University during the 24-hour online event \u2014 emphasizes each donor\u2019s impact on the student experience.<\/p>\n<p>Also known as \u201cMary Wash Day,\u201d the initiative has grown exponentially since its 2017 inception, and with 2020\u2019s event canceled amidst the growing pandemic, UMW\u2019s Annual Giving team is pulling out all the stops this year. Dynamic leaderboards, matching funds and social media challenges will add to the excitement as the day\u2019s progress is tracked live.<\/p>\n<p>The University has benefited from strong private support for more than a century, and donors\u2019 gifts have provided an essential boost throughout the past year. As student need grows and UMW adapts to a rapidly changing world, Giving Day gifts are more valuable than ever. On the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/givingday.umw.edu\/\">Mary Wash Giving Day website<\/a>, on April 13, donors will be able to provide direct financial assistance to students through the General Scholarship Fund or the Technology Assistance Fund, or support the University\u2019s most pressing needs through the Fund for Mary Washington. Gifts will strengthen diversity and inclusion initiatives, and bolster campus preservation, student life, and other areas that define the UMW difference. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.umw.edu\/news\/2021\/03\/16\/giving-day-brings-umw-supporters-all-together-on-april-13\/\">Read more.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There\u2019s no time like spring at the University of Mary Washington, and there\u2019s no day like Giving Day.\u00a0Mary Wash Giving Day\u00a0returns this year on Tuesday, April 13, and the University community near and far \u2013 alumni, faculty, staff, students, parents and friends \u2013 is invited to join the celebration.
