THANK YOU! There's still time to give!

THANK YOU to each member of the Conn community who has supported the College during Conn Giving Day! Your contributions are already shaping the next chapter of the College and creating life-changing opportunities for current and future generations of students. We are incredibly grateful to the nearly 1,000 Camels who have shown their Conn Pride and raised more than $300K (and counting) to support the people, places, and programs that define the Conn experience.  

While our 1,911 minutes of celebration conclude at 3:51 p.m. ET today, we are continuing to accept donations through Monday, April 7. So, if you didn’t get a chance to join us on April 2-3, you can still make a difference and invest in Conn’s future! 

If you have sent your Conn Giving Day gift to the College in the mail or through wire transfer, please send us an email with your name and class year so we can count your participation! If you have any questions or concerns about giving, please contact connecticutcollegefund@conncoll.edu. 

On behalf of the campus community, thank you for investing in Conn’s bright future!
