Vincennes University  is holding its sixth annual Blazers Give Day today, a 24-hour fundraising effort that began at midnight.

The campaign supports student scholarships, academic programs, and other university initiatives. It comes as the university marks its 225th anniversary.

Donors can contribute to a general fund focused on scholarships and academic development or choose to support specific colleges and programs.

Events are taking place throughout the day on the Vincennes campus and at the Jasper campus. Activities include on-campus gatherings and community participation opportunities.

Supporters are also encouraged to take part online by making donations and sharing the campaign on social media.

The fundraiser runs through the end of the day. More information is available on the university’s website.
