LEWISTON, Idaho – The Lewis-Clark State College Foundation and Alumni Association offices will participate in #GivingTuesday, an international day of giving to celebrate generosity worldwide, on Nov. 29.
#GivingTuesday is held annually on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving, following the widely recognized shopping days of Black Friday and Cyber Monday. The day attempts to inspire people to collaborate in improving their local communities and to give back in impactful ways to the charities and causes they support.
As part of its #GivingTuesday efforts, LCSC will provide a special opportunity for individuals to make a year-end donation to a scholarship or campus program of their choice. Those interested in joining the LCSC #GivingTuesday initiative can visit www.lcsc.edu/giving. The Foundation Office can be contacted at 208-792-2457 and the Alumni Office at 208-792-2458.
“This is an exciting time to donate to LCSC,” said Erika Allen, LCSC director of College Advancement and Foundation executive director. “The enrollment jump has resulted in the need to expand and enhance campus programs. We are seeing donors establish new scholarships, supporting faculty excellence and contributing towards capital projects. Giving Tuesday provides alumni, donors, and community members another opportunity to support areas they are most passionate about.”
