1842 DAY IS TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 30! 

WHAT IS 1842 DAY? 

On Tuesday, September 30, we will celebrate our ninth annual 1842 Day. 1842 Day is Villanova's day of giving. It's your opportunity to show pride and gratitude for the impact Villanova has on each of us, in our communities and around the world. Villanovans can make a gift of any size to the area(s) they are passionate about. 

Your gift on 1842 Day also contributes to Espiritus Nova: The Campaign for Villanova University—the most ambitious fundraising effort in the University’s history. Through this campaign, we will strengthen our academic preeminence, enrich our campus and amplify our collective Augustinian Catholic impact—across the nation and around the world.

Whether you are an alum, student, parent, friend or member of the faculty and staff, you are part of this special community. When Villanovans put our hearts and minds to work, we are unstoppable!
