Think like Hank!
Make a gift. Make a difference.
Rowan University’s ninth annual 24-hour day of giving is set, once again, to be bigger and better than ever before! Since its inception as RowanGIVES Day, the event has raised nearly $1 million to secure a better and brighter future for Rowan students.
Thanks to our leadership, boards and other incredible supporters each year, you can look forward to generous matches and challenges that could double, or even triple, the impact of your gift.
Henry (Hank) and Betty Rowan made their mark on history with their transformational gift. Hank once said, “Make a difference. Make this world a little better because you lived in it.”
So this year, we invite you to come together as part of our Rowan family and think like Hank.
Make your mark. Make a gift. Make a difference.
