#DucksGive 2017
Mission Accomplished

Wow!

Ducks sure know how to rise to the occasion.

When we laid down the challenge of 1,876 donors for #DucksGive, we knew the bar was set high.  But we were blown away when more than 2,000 Ducks came together to Throw Their O and Make the Day, raising over $1 million for scholarships, building renovation and construction projects, and programs such as the Black Cultural Center. 

We’re still tallying the results and will post updates here once everything is counted.

Thank you for making this happen.  We couldn’t have done it without you.

Did you miss out on #DucksGive?  You can still Throw Your O.  Click here to give now.
