Giving Day

What is Giving Day?

Giving Day is the main fundraising day for all WPI clubs and organizations, it runs from September 30th noon to October 1st 7PM. WPI also offers different ways to earn bonuses in addition to base donations.

All the money that you donate goes directly to the club of your choice! For Combat Robotics this is the second year we have participated so we are still working out how to fundraise effectively.

If you have any issues feel free to reach out to the exec or club member who shared the information or reach out to our treasurer, Alex Knox at aaknox@wpi.edu.

Goals and Bonuses

Making your money worth even more than your donation!

Most Donor Overall Competition
In addition to raising money through donations WPI gives out bonuses to the clubs that have the most amount of donors. Last year the club with the most donors had almost 300 donors. Having a bunch of donors give us $5 each could help us earn $2000 in the overall competition. 

Most Donor Final Hour (6-7PM Oct 1st)
The club with the most donors donating during the final hour of giving day will get an additional $500 bonus. 

Pie Jaaron
As a thank you for all the support from our fellow Combat Robotics and NHRL competitiors, once we hit $1000 dollars donated, we will pie Jaaron Leibson, the builder of Red Panda.
