USAO Prepares for 10th Annual Giving Day on April 2nd
The University of Science and Arts of Oklahoma is preparing to celebrate its 10th annual Giving Day on Thursday, April 2nd, 2026. This year marks a decade of generosity, school spirit, and collective impact from alumni, parents, faculty, staff, and friends of USAO.
Giving day will be hosted at the Stevens Alumni House, located on the USAO campus, and online at alumni.usao.edu/giving-day. Supporters are invited to stop by to connect with the members of the USAO Foundation and Alumni Association; and to take part in the excitement as we celebrate the generosity of contributors all across the country.
Over the past nine years, Giving Day has united the ‘Green and Gold’ community around one simple idea: To create opportunity for students. Every contribution helps support scholarships, academic programs, athletics, and campus initiatives across USAO.
“I’m so excited to be a part of our 10th annual Giving Day,” said Shelby Hurst, Director of Development. “Over the past few months, I’ve been very inspired by the way ths community shows up for USAO. Giving Day is a chance to celebrate that generosity and to encourage an even greater sense of unity around our shared mission of supporting USAO and its students.”
The USAO Foundation and Alumni Association will provide live updates throughout the day as participation grows and milestones are reached. Alumni and friends who cannot attend in person are encouraged to participate online and follow along on social media. Mark your calendar for Thursday, April 2nd, 2026, and join USAO in celebration of the ten years of impact the community has provided.
