Chowan Gives 2022

Chowan Gives Day is 24 hours for alumni, students, faculty, staff and friends to show their pride and support their passion for Chowan! You are invited to participate by wearing your Chowan gear, decorating your favorite internet space, posting photos and videos on social media and giving to an area close to your heart.

Absolutely. Support from the ENTIRE Chowan community is what makes our University a remarkable place! No matter the designation or amount, your donation will be counted toward our Day of Giving goal.

A complete list of challenges will be on the Challenges page, and active matches and challenges can be viewed on the main landing page and participating group landing page for the specific area.

Don't forget, anyone can create a challenge or matching opportunity!

Chowan Gives - Day of Giving is not a spectator sport. It's all about joining in and being counted. The more alumni, family, and friends who give, the more people we can reach and inspire to give as well. It's that simple. And that's why it's important to show that #ChowanGives!

Champions are Chowan's digital leaders who share messages and create excitement about our Day of Giving before and during the day. With an investment of a few minutes, Champions help spread awareness—asking their network to participate in Day of Giving using their preferred forms of communication: email, text, phone, and social media. If you are interested in becoming a Champion, you can register here or email thomak@chowan.edu with questions.

Chowan Gives - Day of Giving begins Wednesday, April 13, 2022 at 12:00 AM and will run until 11:59 PM.

You decide! Support the area of campus that is important to YOU. This year we are excited to offer challenges where gifts will be matched, as well as the opportunity for you to create your own challenge as a Champion. Visit the Challenges page to learn more about each of the challenges.
