VRC's Day of Giving Going on Now! |
Every Spring, the Veterans Resource Center participates in PSUs largest fundraising event from April 5th - April 12th called the Day of Giving, and we need your support!
This year donations will be matched one for one put $3,500!
Not only will your donations be matched, but for a challenge, the first three funds to reach the most number of donors between 12 -1 pm on April 12th will earn $500 extra dollars towards their goal! We won last year, let's keep the streak going!
