Each year, SLCC hosts Giving Day, where the community comes together and makes donations toward scholarships and other essential college services. This year’s Giving Day is Thursday, February 15, and the college invites everyone to participate.

There are several ways to get involved – choose the option that works best for you!

Option 1: Donate

Those who choose to donate on Giving Day can direct their gift to one of six areas: General Scholarships, Bruin Dreams Scholarship (for undocumented students, asylum-seeking students, and students seeking official Temporary Protection Status), Bruin Emergency Fund, SLCC Child Care Program, Bruin Pantry, and the Partnerships for Accessing College Education (PACE) program.

Donations will also be matched (up to a preset limit) by our generous Giving Day partners, which deepens the impact of each gift.

Option 2: Become a Social Media Ambassador

SLCC is looking for anyone with a social media presence to help spread the word about Giving Day. Interested? Sign up to be an ambassador here, and you’ll be emailed a Giving Day social media kit complete with visual assets and suggested post copy. Ambassadors can also win an Amazon Gift Card of up to $150 if they post about Giving Day and encourage others to donate.

Option 3: Cheer on the Bruin Basketball teams and donate to the Bruin Pantry

On February 15 at 5 p.m., SLCC’s Men and Women’s basketball teams will play College of Southern Idaho at the Taylorsville Redwood Campus. Fans in attendance can make monetary donations on site to the Bruin Pantry. If we get at least 200 donors during the game, UFirst Credit Union will donate an extra $5,000 to the Pantry. Also, each person who donates while at the game will receive an SLCC beanie.

Option 4: Any Combination You Choose!

Want to donate and be a social media ambassador? That’s great! Plan to attend the basketball games to support and encourage your Facebook friends to support Giving Day? Fantastic! We hope everyone does what they can to support our extraordinary students.

More information can be found on the Giving Day website or at one of the Giving Day pop-up locations that will be at the Taylorsville, Jordan, and South City campuses on February 15.
