Frequently Asked Questions
What is CTS Day of Giving?
Our Day of Giving is a 24-hour celebration of the CTS community and the power of giving back. It starts at midnight, EST, on Feb. 17. Day of Giving is a special opportunity for CTS students, employees, alumni, family, and friends to come together virtually and show their support for the academic department or other program within CTS that they choose.
The goal is to engage our community to advance the mission of CTS. The Day of Giving will help secure resources that allow us to embrace the essential work of scholarship and spiritual formation for our students. Together—in one day—we help create a brighter future for CTS.
