FIT Giving Day is our annual celebration of school spirit and philanthropy. 

Giving Day is a 24-hour celebration of the schools, centers, departments, communities, and more that make us FIT. On Giving Day, the FIT community and friends will unite to champion the artistic innovation, entrepreneurial spirit, and unconventional excellence of FIT.

About FIT Giving Day

This November, the FIT community will come together to support creativity and innovation in the creative economy – starting here, at FIT.

Your donation directly impacts students' educational journeys, allowing them to focus on their studies and creative pursuits without financial stress. No matter the size, every gift contributes to a collective impact that makes a difference in FIT students' lives.

What Can You Give?

  • A gift. Any amount, from $1 to $10,000, is enough to show the spirit of generosity is alive and well at FIT.

  • Your voice. Tell your friends, peers, colleagues, mentors, family, and anyone else who shares our belief in championing unconventional minds.

  • Your leadership. Dedicate your time and talent to the cause by signing up to be a Giving Day Ambassador to celebrate this special one-day event with us!
