Giving Day is back! Join the Boston University College of Fine Arts community on Wednesday, April 8, to support our rising musicians, theatre-makers, and visual artists who, day to day, are enhancing their craft, collaborating with students across multiple disciplines, and are committed to building a world where the arts not only inspire, but are accessible to all.

Make an impact by participating in Boston University’s biggest fundraising event of the year! BU Giving Day 2026 is being held on Wednesday, April 8.

Raquel Philippe, a Boston University MFA Painting student, sits in her studio working on a large canvas in vibrant shades of orange. She wears paint-splattered pants, a casual graphic t-shirt, and blue gloves, focusing intently on her brushwork. Her studio is filled with colorful artwork, paint supplies, and blank canvases leaning against the wall.

Are you up for the CHALLENGE?

On Giving Day, every 75 donors unlock $5,000 in scholarship funds for the College of Fine Arts, until we reach our goal of 375 donors.

That means you have the power to unlock bonus funds for the college! Help us reach our goal by making your gift on BU Giving Day!

Giving Day at the College of Fine Arts is generously sponsored by Dean’s Advisory Board member Holly Haire (CFA’94, Parent CGS’27) and Breen Haire (CFA’94, Parent CGS’27), and an anonymous donor.

JOIN THE CHALLENGE

Another way to participate in Giving Day is by becoming a Giving Day advocate. As an advocate, you’ll encourage your fellow Terriers and friends to give to BU. And you’ll compete with other advocates to win bonus funds for the cause you care about most.
