Day of the Dons

Rooted in Generosity, Growing Together

This year, we’re celebrating the transformative power of generosity with a theme inspired by growth and renewal: Rooted in Generosity, Growing Together.

Our ambitious goal for this year is to inspire 2,025 donors to plant the seeds of generosity, with each gift cultivating new opportunities and nurturing a thriving future for the USF community. You’re directly helping USF students thrive academically, personally, and socially helping them bloom into the leaders of tomorrow.

Whether it’s your first gift or part of a tradition of giving, your support cultivates a community rooted in hope, care, and impact. Join alumni, students, faculty, and friends as we grow the USF community, one gift at a time.

Let’s bloom together—because when we give, we flourish.
