OSHKOSH, Wis.- Titans Day of Giving, the annual 24-hour period of giving across the campus of UW-Oshkosh, is returning on Friday (September 12). This year, 20 individual fundraising pages and two donation matches have been set up.

Titans Day of Giving is held on September 12 every year to honor the first day of classes at Oshkosh Normal School in 1871. The fundraiser's goal is not only to raise funds to support a variety of programs and campus initiatives, but to also remind alumni and friends the impact that UW-Oshkosh has had on their lives. By being a part of Titans Day of Giving, donors have the chance to share your memories and stories of yesterday, as well as support the leaders, researchers and champions of tomorrow.

"You can play a role in continuing the championship tradition of Titan Athletics. Your gift will help ensure that our student-athletes continue to compete at the highest levels and receive the enriching experience they deserve", Assistant Chancellor, Athletics Darryl Sims said. "Your donation can go directly to a specific sport or the Athletics program itself. Donations from the Titans community of supporters offer operational assistance, as well as facility enhancements designed to elevate the student-athlete experience. We strive for gold in everything we do; on the court, in the field of play and in the classroom and community. With your support, there is no doubt Titan Athletics will continue to rise as one to reach our gold standard."
