Kent State’s most generous annual tradition, Giving Tuesday, culminates today, Dec. 3, when the Kent State University Foundation matches donors dollar-for-dollar on gifts up to $1,000 per donor made to any Kent State University Foundation fund (until the $100,000 in matching funds run out). When you give to the cause that matters most to you this Giving Tuesday, you are making a difference and showing that at Kent State, what sets us apart is how we come together.
