Mark your calendars for Giving Tuesday on December 2, 2025! This day is all about generosity. Since its start in 2012, Giving Tuesday has encouraged people around the world to give and celebrate kindness.
This year, you can support the Indiana University of Pennsylvania (IUP) athletics department and its student-athletes. Every donation helps improve their experience. You can give online here and choose where your contribution goes, whether it’s scholarships, operating costs, or facility upgrades.
Todd Garzarelli, the IUP athletic director, emphasizes the importance of support. “Philanthropic support is key in shaping a vibrant student-athlete experience,” he says. He appreciates the unwavering support from fans and donors. Every gift makes a difference for athletes and coaches alike.
In recent years, charitable giving has surged. According to a 2022 survey by Giving USA, donations to nonprofits in the U.S. reached a staggering $485 billion. This reflects a growing trend of communities coming together to support vital causes.
IUP has a rich history, founded in 1875 as a teacher-training college. It has since transformed into a prominent research university, dedicated to student success. As IUP prepares to celebrate its 150th anniversary in 2025, it remains committed to educational excellence and innovation.
