The power of the Camel community! ๐Ÿช๐Ÿฉต

THANK YOU to the Conn community! In 1,911 minutes, over 1,300 donors raised more than $820,000, including the $200,000 challenge from Jessica Archibald โ€™95 and a $25,000 trustee gift. Your support is already creating life-changing opportunities for our students to turn their potential into purpose.

If you didnโ€™t get the chance to join the official 1,911-minute celebration, this page will remain open through Friday, April 10, at midnight ET. If you mailed or wired your gift, please email your name and class year to connecticutcollegefund@conncoll.edu so we can count your participation!

On behalf of the entire campus community, THANK YOU for helping us put the liberal arts into action.

Breaking News: New Conn Giving Day Challenge!

Thanks to the incredible momentum and generosity youโ€™ve shown, Conn Giving Day has exceeded our original goal!

Because of this overwhelming response, an anonymous Trustee has stepped forward with one final challenge: if we reach 1,250 donors, we unlock an additional $25,000 in support for the College! Our success reflects the strength and spirit of the Conn community and what we can accomplish when we come together. 

The power of giving is what makes Connecticut College thrive. Each gift—no matter the size—helps create transformative opportunities for our students, supports faculty in their teaching and research, and strengthens the distinctive, close-knit community that defines Conn. 

Show your Camel pride with your gift before 3:51 p.m ET. Let's see what we can do together!
