Thank you for the overwhelming response! Many responded to the challenge with gifts coming in over the phones and offline. You achieved a milestone for Colorado College on Friday, Dec. 9, when 711 alumni — the most ever in a single day — made a gift to CC, collectively contributing more than $100,000. Although we needed an additional 39 alumni to reach our 750 donor goal, we have much to celebrate.
-----
Last year, more than 600 alumni made a gift in 24 hours which set a record and unlocked $50,000 for Colorado College. This year, two generous donors have raised the stakes to challenge 750 donors to make their gift on Dec. 9 and unlock $75,000 for student scholarships at CC.
Today, we ask all Colorado College alumni to help us reach this goal. Every gift — no matter the size — makes a difference.
Challenge your friends. Talk about it on social media. Make phone calls. Encourage everyone you know to #feedthetiger for the place you love — Colorado College. Make your gift NOW!
