What is Giving Hearts Day?
Founded in 2008, Giving Hearts Day is a 24-hour event for charities in North Dakota and northwest Minnesota. Each year, Giving Hearts Day provides a platform for charities to fund their missions through an ever-increasing community of donors, many of whom get to experience the joy of giving for the first time. The longest-running giving day in the country, Giving Hearts Day has helped participating charities raise $195 million since its founding.
This event is hosted by Dakota Medical Foundation (DMF), Impact Foundation, and the Alex Stern Family Foundation. It will take place on Feb. 13, 2025. Visit the following link to make your donation! Giving Hearts Day
What does this mean for Mayville State University?
The Mayville State University Foundation will participate in Giving Hearts Day for the thirteenth time in 2025. Proceeds from this day will go toward scholarships for Mayville State nursing program students and program expenses.
Your continued support for the RN-to-BSN and MSN nursing programs has helped it to grow and become one of the largest academic programs at Mayville State.
The nursing programs at Mayville State University are making a difference in our community, state, and beyond, as the need for nurses with advanced knowledge, critical thinking, and leadership skills continues to become greater and greater each day. From the bottoms of our hearts, we thank you for your role in making this vital work possible.
