Georgia State Day (#TheStateDay), the university’s annual day of giving, will begin at 10 a.m. on September 27 and will continue until 7:13 p.m. on September 28—one day, nine hours and 13 minutes, a duration chosen in honor of the university’s founding year. Last year, over 2,000 alumni, faculty, staff, students and friends made donations totaling more than $930,000. This year, our goal is to garner even more support as we continue the growth of #TheStateDay tradition and expand its impact!

And you can play a vital role our success by becoming a Panther Advancer!
