Dear Friend,
Giving Day 2026 is just one week away, and I’m looking forward to the energy our community brings to it each year.
This April 22–23, Adelphi students, faculty, staff, alumni, families and friends will come together for 1,896 minutes (honoring Adelphi’s founding year) to support our University and students. Individually, we’ll support causes that matter to each of us. Collectively, we’ll strengthen what matters to us all—Adelphi’s mission to transform lives.
Giving Day is powerful because of its breadth and impact.
You might choose to give to a scholarship, a school or program, internships or student life. You may support an athletic team, the arts, the sciences, research or innovation. A gift to the Adelphi Fund will help advance the University’s most critical needs. Maybe you’ll choose to make a commitment through a planned gift and help unlock another $500,000 through our first-ever Planned Gift Challenge from alumni Carole ’64 and Neal ’63 Stuber.
This year, I’ve been moved to see a number of donors step forward with matches and challenges that can amplify your impact, like:
As our Momentum Campaign: Extraordinary Impact continues, this Giving Day is an opportunity to achieve exciting milestones and break records like we did last year.
Thank you for investing in our students and community.
