Editor's Note on March 13, 2020: As USN has suspended all on-campus events until further notice and is moving to remote learning, the Tiger Give Back Challenge and Kickoff Party have. been postponed.
This annual event to garner participation in the Annual Fund will begin with a Kick-Off Party at Fat Bottom Brewery on Wednesday, March 25.
The PDS/USN community will come together for 24 hours to support USN students, faculty, staff, and programs through gifts to the Annual Fund. All gifts made between 8 a.m. Thursday, March 26 and 8 a.m. Friday, March 27 will count toward the 2019-2020 Tiger Give Back Challenge.

It supports the school's highest priorities for the year, faculty professional development, need-based financial aid, academic programming, visual & performing arts, athletics & lifelong wellness, and campus & environmental stewardship.
