Want to show your love for Brown? Here’s how you can support and spread the word about I Heart Brown Day.
At Brown, our giving days are pretty special. These one-day events bring together thousands of alumni, students, faculty, staff, parents, family, and friends of the University in support of Brown and its mission. They’re as much a gathering of the Brown community as they are a fundraising event.
Carrying on this tradition is the Brown Annual Fund’s fall giving day—I Heart Brown Day. Here are a few ways you can be part of the day and help spread the word!
