Student Giving
Giving back is a way to support what matters to you at Brandeis. Donate to a Brandeis club, program, team, student organization, or academic department, or give to the Brandeis Fund, which supports campus priorities like financial aid, sustainability efforts, and diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives.
We hope you’ll participate in one of these special student-giving initiatives this year!
Giving DEISday, held every fall, is the perfect opportunity for you to demonstrate what you care most about at Brandeis! Every gift counts towards our single-day donor goal. If we reach it, we unlock additional funds for Brandeis.
The Class of 2023 is invited to give back to the programs, clubs, teams and departments that you’ve been involved in during your time at Brandeis. Make your gift now and be part of a 30+ year tradition of seniors saying thank you.
Whether it’s $10, a class-year gift ($20.23) or any other amount, your gift – alongside those of your classmates – will make a positive collective difference as an integral part of the Senior Class Gift. Over the years, seniors have given more than $250,000 supporting what matters to them at Brandeis, not only benefiting the students that follow in their footsteps but also helping to secure their class’s legacy at Brandeis!
If you’re a senior interested in being part of the Senior Class Gift Committee, contact Ben Niles at bniles@brandeis.edu.
