Two words: “Wow!” & “Thanks!” — Georgia State Day 2026
Apr 24, 2026

YOU DID IT!

On Georgia State Day 2026, the university asked you to give in support of GSU student opportunity. You answered…and answered in a big, BIG, record-setting way! 


Your generous giving helped power Georgia State to a new giving day record — $1.35 million! This topped our previous Georgia State Day high, set just last year. 


Georgia State has tremendous momentum, and your support on Georgia State Day 2026 has given the university and its students another BIG boost. You and your fellow donors have provided Panthers with vital resources that will open doors to discovery, choices, and rewarding futures. That’s impact! 


On behalf of the university and its students, thank you for investing in Panther futures.  You deserve a BIG hand! 



Your Gift Helps GSU Students Dream Big!
