Frequently Asked Questions
What Is Regis Gives Day?
Regis Gives Day is a 24-hour challenge to inspire our community members to make a gift of any size to the Regis causes they care about. Over 20 causes have been identified as priority funding areas for the University. Every gift makes a difference.
How Do I Make a Gift?
Regis Gives Day will officially launch on April 13, 2022. On that day, there will be a link to donate on our giving day page. We encourage everyone to give online. We are accepting several new online payment methods in 2022 including Venmo, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and direct bank transfer in addition to a standard credit card gift. Please contact annualsupport@regis.edu if you have any questions about these alternative payment methods. Wish to donate via check or another payment method? See the answer in our FAQ about this below.
How Can My Gift Make A Difference?
Gifts of all sizes make a difference by providing funds that can be spent right away on the most pressing needs of the area you supported. Gifts of small dollar amounts can add up to make a large impact. Last year, gifts under $250 added up to over $200,000.
Is There A Minimum Donation Amount?
The minimum donation amount is $1.
Can Donors Make Gifts from Outside the US?
Yes! Many International Regis alumni, parents, and friends have participated. If you encounter any issues with your payment, please contact annualsupport@regis.edu.
Can I give via a Check, Stock, Wire Transfer, Payroll Deduction, or Other Payment Method?
Yes, please email annualsupport@regis.edu if you wish to make a non-online gift. We will be accepting checks with Regis Gives Day written into the memo line that are postmarked or received by or before April 13.
Why Can’t I Find A Fund?
On Regis Gives Day, we are focusing on the highest priority funds of schools, colleges, and programs across campus, so there is only a subset of funds available on the Gives Day site. If none of our priority projects inspire you, please select other and write in the fund you would like to support.
What Should I Give To?
You can use this page to view project descriptions for each fund that outline exactly what your gift will support. We have also grouped projects into categories to assist you in funding the area or cause that is most meaningful to you. If you really can’t decide, we recommend supporting the Regis University Excellence Fund, which supports the greatest funding needs at Regis University.
