DO GOOD ON GIVING TUESDAY
Giving Tuesday starts at midnight on December 2, 2025! Join the movement and Do Good on Giving Tuesday by making your gift and supporting our DRAGON community.
Giving Tuesday is more than a day of generosity; it is a global celebration of giving, unity, and collective transformation. For the Ricks Institute Alumni Association, USA Inc., it is a moment for all of us—no matter where we live or when we graduated—to come together and invest in the future of the institution that helped shape us.
This year, we’re focusing on key areas that are essential to the success and well-being of our students at RICKS INSTITUTE. Your generosity will help us continue to provide opportunities, strengthen our community, and uphold our commitment to world-class academics for generations to come.
No matter where within the Ricks Institute Alumni Association Projects you choose to give, your contribution will positively impact students, faculty, and staff. Every donation empowers the Alumni Association to support Ricks Institute’s mission of opportunity and lasting change.
Ricks Institute Alumni Association (RIAA) holds a long-standing tradition of helping students accomplish their academic goals and become successful citizens. Some students rely on our financial help to be able to go to school. 100% of the money that you donate goes directly to the student to pay for school fees, books, housing, meal plans, and other school supplies that are too burdensome for their families to shoulder.
DONOR SCHOLARSHIP
