Days of Giving

SUNY Brockport’s Days of Giving is a fundraising event to support current and future students. All gifts made from Wednesday, March 25, through Wednesday, April 8, before 11:59 p.m. EST, will count towards the Days of Giving total.

All gifts help ensure students have the resources to attend and complete their Brockport education, fund hands-on learning opportunities, and support student programs.

Days of Giving demonstrates the collective power of philanthropy. Your generosity ensures students receive an exceptional education that prepares them for lifelong success. Together, we can establish a community that supports and creates opportunities for students.

Your contribution makes an additional impact thanks to the generous donors who provide challenge funds. With your gift, you will help your favorite area of the University win challenge funds.

From March 25 to April 8, there are several ways to make your Days of Giving gift: 

1. Make a gift online
2. Text BPORTSOAR to 71777
3. Call (585) 395-2451 between 8:30 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. EDT.
4. Multi-Year Pledge: Spread the payments of your gift over a two-to-five-year period. A multi-year pledge allows donors to make larger commitments and fulfill them at a comfortable pace. During Days of Giving, your total pledge commitment will be included in our totals. Email giving@brockport.edu if you would like to make a multi-year pledge.
5. Donor-Advised Fund: Make a grant request from your Donor-Advised Fund (DAF) and share your intent by emailing giving@brockport.edu to have a grant from your DAF included in our totals.
6. Stocks and Appreciated Assets: Gifts of appreciated stocks, securities, or mutual funds are an effective choice when making a gift to the University. Receive a charitable deduction for the fair market value of the gift and avoid capital gains tax. Share your intent by emailing giving@brockport.edu to have your gifts of stocks and appreciated assets included in our totals.
7. Qualified Charitable Distributions: Make a gift from your Individual Retirement Account (IRA) through a Qualified Charitable Distribution. If you are 70 1/2 or older, you can direct your gift to SUNY Brockport from your IRA. Share your intent by emailing giving@brockport.edu to have your gift included in our totals.

While we encourage giving online, gifts by mail intended for Days of Giving will be accepted. If donating by check, please make it payable to the “Brockport Foundation” and put “DOG” in the memo line. Email us for a giving form and mail your donation to:

Brockport Foundation
350 New Campus Drive
Brockport, NY 14420

100% of your gift goes directly to the cause you choose: scholarships, an athletic team, a specific academic department, or the area of SUNY Brockport you are most passionate about. Your contribution will be used to ensure our students, programs, faculty, and staff have the resources to succeed.

Your gift also supports Igniting Excellence: The Campaign for Brockport.
