About

#TuftsGivingTuesday is back and we are here to celebrate! 🎉🥳

This day is about more than just giving to your favorite Tisch College priority while also securing challenge funds for meaningful initiatives at the same time. (But heck, those are pretty good reasons.) #TuftsGivingTuesday is about supporting our vision of creating a place where collaborative, innovative, and inclusive learning, research, and teaching occur hand-in-hand. So, let's have fun, give, and do good together!

Give and help enable Tisch College students to:

✅ prepare for a lifetime of engagement in civic life

✅ study civic life and its intersections with public and private institutions

✅ promote practices that strengthen democracy in our communities, across the nation, and around the world

Looking to give via stock, wire transfer, or donor advised fund but still want to have it count for #TuftsGivingTuesday? We can make that happen! Fill out this form and someone from the #TuftsGivingTuesday team will be in touch.

SPOTLIGHT: TUPIT

Tufts University Prison Initiative of Tisch College (TUPIT)

Studies show that completing college programming while in prison increases a person’s likelihood of basic survival through decreased recidivism and increased employability. It encourages the development of self-esteem, empathy, curiosity, and the critical capacity for collaboration. TUPIT brings Tufts University faculty and students together with incarcerated and formerly incarcerated people, educators, organizers, corrections staff, and scholars of criminal justice to facilitate creative and collaborative responses to the problems of mass incarceration and racial injustice. The program is dedicated to providing transformative educational experiences to foster participants to become active citizens of change in the world. This year’s #TuftsGivingTuesday challenge: 50 donors to TUPIT secures $4,500!
