Each spring, CU Denver hosts Giving Day, a 24-hour campaign dedicated to expanding opportunity and impact for our students. Before Giving Day officially begins on April 2, we’re gathering alumni and donors for a special kickoff celebration.
Join us for Countdown to Make it Real, an evening at Bierstadt Lagerhaus to connect, build momentum, and raise a glass to the collective impact of our CU Denver community.
What to Expect
This event sets the tone for Giving Day and brings together the people who make our mission possible. Whether you’ve supported CU Denver for years or recently made your first gift, your presence helps spark the energy behind Make it Real.
