William & Mary’s inaugural One Tribe One Day philanthropy challenge was a record-breaking day for giving at the university. More students, alumni, parents, faculty, staff and friends made gifts to William & Mary than on any other single day in the university’s history. More than 1,700 people gave more than $150,000 during the 24-hour event that featured a carnival on campus for underclassmen, a Senior Class Gift Picnic and alumni parties in eight cities across the United States and London — all focused on the importance of private giving to William & Mary. One Tribe One Day shattered the university’s previous record of 523 donors in a single day.
