Raise Some L, our annual day of giving, wraps up at midnight tonight—this is your final chance to support the University of Louisville and help us hit our goals! 

Check out the video below for a live look inside Raise Some L headquarters, where our dedicated students are working hard, reaching out to supporters like you to see if they’d consider making a gift of any size.

Every contribution, no matter how big or small, makes an impact. If you haven’t made your gift yet, there’s still time—don’t miss your chance to be part of something special!  

As we near the end of Raise Some L, $1,000 in bonus funds is on the line for the top three funds with the most unique donors between 10 p.m. and midnight. First place will receive an additional $600, second place $300 and third place $100.  

Let’s come together in these final hours and finish Raise Some L strong!  

To those who have already given, we extend our deepest gratitude. Your support is invaluable and helps create a brighter future for our students and community.  

We’ll see you next October for Raise Some L 2025!

This year, we’re aiming to paint the entire nation Cardinal Red! All it takes is a single gift from each state. As donations come in, our map on RaiseSomeL.org updates in real time, turning red state by state.

By turning the map Cardinal Red, we show that people from coast to coast are committed to making a difference in the lives of our students.

Now, let’s head back over to the Raise Some L studio to learn about the areas of campus our students are most passionate about.

The Health Sciences Center (HSC) Pathways Initiatives for Health Equity Fund aims to support students from diverse backgrounds in exploring and deepening their understanding of health professions. The fund backs initiatives such as peer support, hands-on learning, health fairs, summer programs, and other career-enhancing activities.

University of Louisville's general need-based scholarships are crucial because they provide essential financial support to students who might otherwise struggle to afford higher education. These scholarships help bridge the gap between a student's financial resources and the cost of tuition, ensuring that deserving students can focus on their studies without the stress of financial hardship. By making education more accessible, these scholarships contribute to a more diverse and inclusive campus community.

Raise Some L, the University of Louisville’s annual day of giving, is live now and runs until midnight tomorrow, and we’ve lined up some incredible matches and challenges to make your gift go even further! 

Don’t miss this opportunity to amplify your impact and make a lasting difference!
