Questions and Answers
Below you will find answers to many common questions about OHSU Give Day 2021.
What is OHSU Give Day?
OHSU Give Day is our first Day of Giving—an inspiring online fundraising event on May 18. All gifts made on May 18 between 12:01 a.m. and 11:59 p.m. PST will count toward OHSU Give Day.
Why give on May 18?
On May 18, your gift will be matched $1 for $1 while matching funds last. For 24 hours, your impact will be DOUBLED. When you give, others will be inspired to follow your lead. And, if you give $40 or more, as a gesture of our appreciation, we will send you an OHSU Face mask. This is a day to support YOU and the OHSU community and we hope you will participate.
