News Release

NORTH MANCHESTER — Manchester University Giving Day is Wednesday, April 19. Money raised goes to the Manchester Fund, and this year’s theme is “Manchester Bold.”

The Manchester Fund helps provide scholarships for students who might not otherwise be able to afford a Manchester education and addresses the university community’s day-to-day needs — from technology updates to travel expenses.

The one-day goal is $200,000.

Leonard Williams, Manchester professor emeritus of political science and visiting professor at Georgetown University in Qatar, has crafted a crossword puzzle for Giving Day. There are links to each puzzle for those who prefer to complete them online, and there are PDFs for those who prefer a paper version.

Spartans are encouraged to become ambassadors, helping with outreach on social media. There will also be giving challenges for current students and alumni.
