MSU’s fifth Give Green Day supports Spartan students

Michigan State University’s fifth annual Give Green Day will take place March 16, 2021, a departure from the tradition of past years, when the event has taken place in late fall.

Despite the new date, other aspects of the successful annual event remain the same: It’s still a 24-hour campaign to engage Spartans and friends across the world in giving back to the causes they care about, all to support students at MSU. In 2019, MSU raised more than $1.5 million on Give Green Day from more than 4,800 alumni, students and friends, many of them donating to MSU for the first time.

The MSU Federal Credit Union stepped up to be a Give Green Day sponsor this year, providing matching funds that will be used in giving challenges throughout the day.

“MSUFCU is proud to partner with MSU during Give Green Day this year. We hope to encourage giving from others who will come alongside and invest in the programs, services and scholarships that support students in areas of greatest need and significant impact,” said April Clobes, president and CEO of MSUFCU.

All of MSU’s colleges are expected to participate, as well as the Wharton Center for Performing Arts, the Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum, MSU Libraries and International Studies and Programs among others. Additionally, alumni clubs around the country will ask their members and friends to support club initiatives and scholarship funds.

Gifts to any of these causes will go right to work making an impact on the lives of MSU students and members of the larger MSU community. To make an online gift on Give Green Day, head to givingday.msu.edu/projects, select a project to support and follow the steps to complete your gift.
