All In for Wesleyan

April 14, 2026 is the 14th? Annual All in for Wesleyan Giving Day! This 24 hour celebration of community and philanthropy is a very special day for the IWU community to come together to make an impact for current and future TItans.

Our goal is to inspire IWU alumni, students, staff, faculty, donors, parents, and friends to support the many aspects of IWU that make it so distinctive. #AllInforWesleyan

Absolutely! Support from the entire IWU community is what makes our University a remarkable place. No matter the amount you give, your donation will be counted toward our Giving Day goal of 3,000 gifts and $2,500,000.

Make a gift online at allin.iwu.edu by clicking the “Give Now” button at the top of the website. You can also give over the phone by calling 309-556-3091. If you would like to contribute through a donor-advised fund, stock transfer, or any other method please call the same number and we can assist you. That way your support can be included in the All In totals for the day!

If you are interested in funding a matching or challenge opportunity to inspire more participation - please contact ekabbes@iwu.edu!

Thank you for your support! Please give us a call to let us know about a mailed check and we will be able to record the pledge to count towards the total dollars raised. 

When you give to the Wesleyan Fund, you make an immediate difference in three key areas:

-  Helping students thrive by providing need-based financial aid and merit scholarships. 

-  Giving University leadership the flexibility to respond to IWU’s most pressing needs and new opportunities. 

-  Fueling innovation by providing seed funding for strategic projects that move IWU forward.

Yes! We need your help spreading the word about this one day a year dedicated to giving to IWU. Use social media channels, emails, text, and phone calls to help bring awareness to this event. For an easy way to share updates, you can sign up to be an ambassador! Ambassadors have access to an easy social sharing tool that will allow you to share the campaign and track your influence. More information is included below. 

Ambassadors are IWU’s volunteer digital leaders who share messages and create excitement about All In before and during the big day. With an investment of a few minutes, Ambassadors help spread awareness by engaging with the network to participate using whatever forms of communication they prefer! If you are interested in becoming an Ambassador, you can register online or email ekabbes@iwu.edu with questions.

We appreciate your generosity any and every day of the year, but we especially encourage you to join IWU’s philanthropic community by making a gift on April 14. When you make a gift during All In you identify yourself as someone who believes that we should all be #AllInforWesleyan and we can be so proud of our collective impact during one big day!

Challenge and matching gifts are funded by IWU donors whose gift is designated to support All In for Wesleyan and designed to multiply the impact of giving. A complete list of challenges will be on the Challenges page, and active matches and challenges can be viewed on the main landing page.

If you are unable to support All In on April 14 but still want to participate, please contact Emily Kabbes at ekabbes@iwu.edu or 309-556-2026.
