Give Green (& Gold) This GivingTuesday
At William & Mary, civic leadership begins with the belief that knowledge brings responsibility and wisdom should serve the common good. The Year of Civic Leadership honors this lasting commitment and invites our community to steward our nation and world with humility, courage, and reverence.
When you give, you help develop leaders who listen across differences, think carefully and act with integrity. Your generosity supports faculty-led courses and research that address the institutions and challenges shaping public life, from documenting democratic erosion through the US DEED database to analyzing voting systems and building cross-cultural partnerships in post-conflict communities.
A gift in support of the Year of Civic Leadership helps:
- Advance research and coursework that address the systemic challenges of our republic.
- Empower the next generation of leaders to sustain partnerships and commit to work that endures beyond the moment.
- Celebrate W&M’s foundational role in advancing democracy and prepare students to lead with distinction.
No gift is too small, because every contribution helps us treat leadership as a moral responsibility. Join us in preparing tomorrow's leaders to serve the common good today.
GivingTuesday Support
Support William & Mary
The William & Mary community came together in a powerful way during the last fiscal year, contributing more than $123.4 million to help shape the university's future. More than 31,500 donors stepped up, from seniors making their first gifts to the Class of 1976, whose historic reunion gift totaled $36 million. This success was not the work of a few large donors; it reflected a shared belief in our students. Your generosity is felt across campus, from the new Mackesy Sports Performance Center to life-changing scholarships that make a degree in coastal and marine sciences tuition-free. Every gift, no matter the size, invests in human potential, opens doors for talented students and ensures that W&M remains a place where principled leaders are forged.
GivingTuesday is a global movement celebrating the generosity of donors and the impact of their giving. Held annually on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving, it brings individuals, communities, and organizations together to create positive change. Since its 2012 launch, GivingTuesday has inspired countless acts of kindness, millions of donations, and collaborations that have made a lasting difference in communities worldwide.
