Fly Together Give Together Day of Giving

Day of Giving

$10,000

GOAL

Fly Together, Give Together is more than a tradition—it’s a powerful movement. It’s a day when students, alumni, faculty, staff, community members, and supporters come together to make a real and lasting impact both on our campus and beyond. This year, on Tuesday, December 3, 2024, we unite once again to ignite hope, inspire futures, and build a stronger tomorrow. Our goal for this year’s Day of Giving is to raise more than $10,000 to continue supporting the incredible work our foundation does for our Lakehawk students.

We can’t achieve this without the generosity and kindness of donors like you. Together, we can make a difference!

What is Fly Together Give Together...All In?

Every student has a dream.  Every family has hope.  Every gift has the power to change lives.  On December 3rd, during our Fly Together, Give Together, All In fundraising event, we join hands and hearts as part of the global Giving Tuesday movement to uplift the Lake-Sumter State College community.  This is more than a day of giving – it's an opportunity to come together as one, ensuring that no student is held back by financial hardship, hunger, or unexpected challenges.  Together, we can create brighter futures and show that no dream is out of reach.  This single day is a chance for us to unite – students, alumni, faculty, staff, community members, and supporters – to make a meaningful impact, one gift at a time.  Your generosity will fuel three vital causes:
