April 9 & 10 | 1,958 Minutes
For 1,958 minutes, we’re going All In for Alvernia. Beginning April 9 at 10 a.m. and concluding April 10 at 6:30 p.m., Alvernia is rallying together to raise $65,000 in honor of our founding year — 1958 — during All In for Alvernia 2025.
Every dollar raised supports the Hope Fund, providing Alvernia students with essential tools for success: academic advising, counseling, healthcare, scholarships, emergency aid and more. This fund has already helped hundreds of students stay on track to graduation — while balancing school, work and family responsibilities. 100% of donations go directly to students.
- Donors who make a gift of $19.58 will receive an exclusive Alvernia sticker and be entered to win one of our Alvernia Experiences, which include a VIP Homecoming Tailgating spot, use of the President's Box at Alvernia Stadium, VIP tickets for Alvernia's theater production, coffee with the President or tickets to 2025 MargaritaVern.
- Donors who make a gift of $35 will receive an Alvernia T-shirt.
- Donors who make a gift of $65 will receive a student-designed Alvernia sweatshirt.

Ways to Get Involved
- Make a Difference: A gift of any size (but at least $10) goes a long way to support Alvernia students.
- Rally Your Friends to Join In: Encourage your friends to make a gift, and make sure you share on social media. The Institutional Advancement team works hard to reach all Alvernia alums, friends and family, but you can widen that reach.
