On April 15, five projects were highlighted: the Monmouth Fund, Fighting Scots Society, Senior Class gift, Loyalty scholarship, and new Marching Band uniforms. “The Draves Double” is a new initiative that encourages donors to support a pair of these causes. The goal was to reach 1,000 donors and at least one donation from every state.
“Scots Day of Giving is...a day when our campus community and alumni from all across the country come together to support students and the programs that shape their experience,” said Hannah Maher, the Vice President for Development and College Relations, “What I love most is the collective impact - how thousands of individual acts of generosity (giving, volunteering, promoting Monmouth) add up to something truly transformational.”
