Tag Day celebrates NU donors

You may have noticed tags starting to appear all over campus this week as Nipissing readies for Tag Day. Nipissing students will be saying some big thank yous, as they celebrate the impact donors make to the student experience during Tag Day, this Thursday, February 27.

Tag Day gives students the opportunity to thank donors, make a donation, and help promote the whole campaign with ‘I love a donor’ or ‘I gave’ stickers. Students who participate by writing a message or donating funds will be entered into a draw to win two tickets for March 3, 2014, Toronto Maple Leafs vs. Columbus Blue Jackets hockey game in Toronto.

A booth with a white board will be set up in Nipissing’s main foyer where students can have their photo taken next to their own message of thanks to a donor. Those messages will then be emailed as a thank you to the donor.

Over the past 10 years more than $18 million has been donated to Nipissing University to enhance the educational experience of our students. Donors provide much needed funds to support student bursaries, awards and scholarships. The Harris Learning Library was made possible by $8 million from donors.
