Simmons Giving Day is a 24-hour celebration of community and participation. On Giving Day, students, alumnae/i, parents, faculty, staff, and friends come together to support Simmons and the students at the heart of the University.
All gifts made on March 11, between 12:00 a.m. and 11:59 p.m. ET, count toward Simmons Giving Day totals.
On Giving Day, participation matters. Gifts of all sizes help build momentum and demonstrate the strength of the Simmons community.
Thanks to generous supporters, Giving Day may also include matches or challenges that help amplify the impact of your gift. Throughout the day, you will be able to see progress in real time and follow how the community is coming together.
One hundred percent of your gift supports Simmons in the way you choose. You may direct your gift to a specific school, program, or fund, or choose to support Simmons where opportunity is needed most.
If challenge or match funds are available, those bonus dollars are awarded to areas that meet the challenge criteria and provide additional support beyond individual gifts.
On March 11, you can make your gift by clicking the Give Now button above.
Online gifts are processed through a secure platform, and your information will be used only by Simmons University.
If you choose to give by mail, gifts intended for Simmons Giving Day must be received by March 11 to be included in Giving Day totals. Please include a note indicating “Simmons Giving Day” and mail to:
