Flashes Give Back Week Is April 21-26!

At Kent State, helping others is what we do and, this year, we are excited to offer even more ways to give back.

5XÉçÇø held its first Alumni Day of Service in 2009. Since then, it has blossomed into a weeklong initiative supporting our blue and gold communities around the world. During Flashes Give Back Week, Golden Flashes can choose to . With in-person volunteer opportunities from Washington, D.C. to Southern California, plus several virtual options, there are a variety of ways to make a difference at Kent State and in our communities.

Because of the overwhelming support of our Flashes family over the past 15 years, we are excited to offer even more opportunities to give back. Kent State will hold an official day of giving Tuesday, April 22. From 12:01 a.m. to 11:59 p.m. on Tuesday. There will be special incentives to make your gift go further, so you can make an even bigger impact on the cause or initiative that means the most to you. Plus, anyone who makes a donation of $50 or more will receive a special Kent State swag pack!

Kent State is also bringing back Thank-a-Giver (TAG) Day, a tradition that allows the university and its students to share their gratitude for all those who support our community. While Kent State plans several events and opportunities to thank its generous donors and volunteers throughout the year, TAG Day offers even more students the chance to share how our Golden Flashes family has impacted their journey to graduation.  

This Flashes Give Back Week, show us all the remarkable ways you support our Kent State community.
