Celebrate Hardin-Simmons University Giving Day
On February 18, 2025, Hardin-Simmons University invites you to showcase your Cowboy Spirit during HSU’s Giving Day – Cowboys Raise Gold. Each contribution, big or small, helps fuel scholarships, athletics, missions, and more, ensuring that future Cowboys and Cowgirls carry forward our mission to grow, lead, and serve.
Timed around HSU’s founding, this third annual Cowboys Raise Gold is a celebration of our history and our future. In honor of our founding year, we strive to reach an online giving goal of $18,910.
“This day is so special because it brings us together as a family and community to celebrate HSU—who we are, our university, and our founding,” said Associate Vice President for Engagement and Advancement Heather Hadlock. “It’s a time to stand united, to honor the experiences, friendships, and opportunities that have brought us together through HSU, proving we’re all connected for life.”
This year, your gift goes even further. Thanks to generous matching funds, every dollar you give will be doubled, amplifying the impact of the day and helping us reach our goal.
Together, we can make a lasting impact. Join us in celebrating HSU!
