Wake Forest Giving

You did it. Once again, it was a great day to be a Deac, and your generosity created opportunities across campus that will benefit deserving Wake Forest students and faculty for years to come. We cannot thank you enough.

With calculated precision, Bill Satterfield is officially the winner of the Tortoise half of the Tortoise and Hare Challenge!

It's down to this… just 20 more donors before the clock strikes midnight, and Wake Forest receives an additional $250K! Any amount, to any one of the more than 175 options, counts toward the goal. Let's make it happen!

WE ARE LESS THAN 200 DONORS AWAY! If 199 more Deacs make a donation to any of the more than 175 opportunities on the table, we will secure an additional $250K for Wake Forest! We can do this!

Where in the world is Grayson Absher? Alone at the top of the podium. Congratulations on winning the Location, Location, Location challenge!

Just like blinds at different heights or a puzzle missing a single piece, we can't leave it like this. If you or a Deac you know lives in Alaska, Hawaii, Oklahoma or Wyoming, we need you!

800 is the magic number — and all that stands between Wake Forest and an additional $250K! Let's go, Deacs!

You wish your parents were as cool as Philip and Ann Marie Denning, because they just won the Mom & Pop challenge!

Congrats to Elizabeth Howells and Mark Johnson, whose high-flying philanthropy earned them the title of Ally-oop champions!

Our 18th gift of the hour was made by Celeste Lynch, and our 34th was made by Neisa Maute. Congratulations to both on winning the 1834 Challenge!

Laurent Alves is wearing the top hat this hour!
