Being a Spartan isn’t just about wearing the same colors or cheering for the same team. It’s about being part of a community that’s committed to doing their part to build a better tomorrow.
This community is the foundation of Give Green Day. On March 15, join Spartans across the globe for a chance to give back and make a difference for current and future students. Last year, Spartans like you helped raise over $1.24 million dollars over a 24-hour period. Many have already benefitted from those gifts, and your support will continue to inspire and impact Spartans of all ages.
We know the global Spartan community is offering their time and talents to help make the world a better place in other ways as well. To celebrate that, our Global Day of Service—typically occurring each April—has become Spartans Serve Week. Happening annually in September, Spartans Serve Week is designed to show the world the extraordinary impact Spartans can make in a single week. It is part of a year-round initiative that brings Spartans together who are determined to make a difference.
The Spartan community is driven by passion and an enthusiasm that crosses excited for the return of Grandparents University, a unique three-day summer camp that welcomes young Spartans and their grandparents to campus. Registration opens in March for this special program that immerses kids in the MSU experience and creates memories that connect families and last a lifetime.
After an exciting fall that welcomed students and alumni safely back to East Lansing, saw the return of our Alumni Grand Awards Gala and kept Paul Bunyan at home, we’re most excited for what’s to come—on campus and around the world.
Go Green!
