Today, December 3rd, Youngstown State Athletics is participating in #GivingTuesday.​

GivingTuesday.org describes the event as a global day of giving fueled by the power of social media and collaboration. Celebrated on the Tuesday following Thanksgiving, and the widely recognized shopping events Black Friday and Cyber Monday, #GivingTuesday kicks off the charitable season, when many focus on their holiday and end-of-year giving. This #GivingTuesday, and throughout this holiday season, Youngstown State University alumni and friends are asked to consider supporting the more than 400+ YSU student-athletes that proudly wear the Red & White.

Whether you can give $10, $75 or $1,500, your gift will make a difference at YSU. Through the power of participation, you can help YSU climb to greater heights this Giving Tuesday. By making a gift today, you are making a difference in the lives of our student-athletes and the life of our University. Every gift matters! Join us in transforming the lives of our student-athletes and elevating our University.

Contributions to the Athletic Department are critical to the sustainability of YSU’s 20 NCAA Division I athletic programs, and every donation, regardless of size, makes a difference. 

Don’t forget to tag @ysuathleticspenguinclub and @ysusports and use the following hashtags #PenguinsGivingTuesday and #GivingTuesday on Facebook and Twitter so we can say thank you!
