CofC Day 2025 was a huge success—thanks to YOU!

For 1,770 minutes, the College of Charleston community—alumni, students, parents, faculty, staff and friends—came together with a shared goal: to open doors, fuel innovation and create new opportunities for the next generation.

Because of your generosity, students will have the resources and support they need to thrive at CofC and beyond.

We're tallying the final results and will share the full impact of this incredible day. But one thing is certain—your support is truly making a difference.

Only one hour left before its a wrap on this year's CofC Day🥳

Thank you to everyone who has already given—*you* have made Addlestone's 20th birthday very special❤️
