Maine Day of Giving is a 24-hour day of philanthropy at the University of Maine which coincides each year with Maine Day. UMaine alumni, faculty, staff, students and friends can participate in Maine Day service from anywhere by making a gift to support what they love about the College of Our Hearts Always.
About Maine Day
President Arthur Hauck, who established Maine Day in 1935, said that a successful Maine Day accomplishes three things:
- The Campus, through work projects, becomes a more attractive place.
- We foster the spirit of friendliness and cooperation which we like to identify as the Maine spirit.
- We strengthen our loyalty to one another and to the University.
Maine Day of Giving is an annual event that keeps the spirit of Maine Day alive whether you are on campus for Maine Day or celebrating from afar.
