Help Spread the Word:

  1. Make a gift! | The best way to support Millersville on #VilleOneDayGive is by making a gift yourself. This is a great opportunity to Give To What You Love! Any amount, to any area of the University, will add up and make an impact. If you made a gift yourself, it is easier to encourage others to join the cause!
  2. Share a post on social media | Use the social media templates and images to spread the word about #VilleOneDayGive. When you make a gift, tell your fellow Marauders and encourage them to join you in supporting Millersville. Share why you give to what you love at Millersville, and where you are directing your gift to support what you love best.
  3. Create a video post for your social media networks | Share your ‘Ville story about why you “give to what you love” with your gift for One Day Give. Encourage others to give to a favorite program, team or fund that is meaningful to you. Be creative. Include the One Day Give hashtag in your post – #VilleOneDayGive – and tag Millersville University social media channels @millersvilleu on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
  4. Tell your friends directly | If you are in touch with fellow Millersville alumni/students, personally ask them to get involved and spread the word.
