Donation is a consumption choice
A donation to the university is a consumption choice, just like buying a new shirt.
Give for the future
Donation in honour of a special occasion
A special occasion coming up and no ideas for gifts? How about setting up a fundraiser where people can donate in celebration of your special day?
Why set up a celebration fundraiser?
By setting up a celebration fundraiser, you can help build a sustainable future. A donation to Aalto University is an investment in the future, and a celebration fundraiser is a good way to celebrate the various milestones in life.
A celebration fundraiser is also a tangible way to show your appreciation for science, technology, art and business.
You can either opt to collect donations in honour of someone else or set up a fundraiser in celebration of your own special occasion, when you would rather direct funds to the university than receive material gifts.
A fundraiser to celebrate a special occasion
Are you celebrating your birthday and instead of flowers and gifts, wish people to donate to research and education that builds a sustainable future? Do you wish to honour your colleague’s retirement in a more meaningful way and plan for a group gift? Setting up a celebration fundraiser is a good way to celebrate any special occasion.
Setting up a celebration fundraiser is easy
