Last night, a few of our Ambassadors had the chance to sit with former member Ryan Urban! It was great to hear about his time at Pitt State and gain valuable advice that we can carry into both our personal and professional lives.

As a student, Ryan was a highly-involved leader whose experience inspired him to establish The Ryan Urban Advancement Ambassador Award, which recognizes one outstanding member each year. We look forward to awarding this at the end of the semester. Thank you, Ryan!

Apple Day 2026! 🍎

What a fun day we had getting to celebrate Pitt State. Thank you to everyone who came to our soda bar, wrote Thank You's to our donors, and participated in our giveaway! It's amazing to be part of a campus that's full of so many thankful students. Wouldn't be the same without you, Gorillas! 🦍

In honor of this year's T.A.G. week, the Advancement Ambassadors will be hosting a giveaway at Wednesday's Apple Day activities on the Axe Library lawn 🙌

Stop by our table to get a cup and drink from our dirty soda bar AND have a chance to enter the giveaway by saying thank you to one of Pitt's first-time donors. Students can do this by writing a "Thank you" note at the table or by saying "Thank you" in a video!

Entries for the giveaway will only be accepted in-person this way, and the winner will be announced on Thursday the 9th. The prize includes a PSU Foundation tumbler, straw topper, Thankful Gorillas t-shirt, pen, and a $50 voucher to the on-campus bookstore.

You won't want to miss this opportunity, so mark your calendars for 11:00 am to 1:00 pm on Wednesday! We'll see you there 🍎 🙏

It's no joke that next week, we get to celebrate T.A.G. Week! This is a week dedicated to recognizing the generosity of our PSU Donors by tagging all of the items they've donated.

We'll be joining the rest of campus on Wednesday, April 8th, to participate in the Apple Day activities taking place by Axe Library. Keep an eye out for the soda bar at the Advancement Ambassadors table from 11 AM–1 PM that day—more details to come!

So excited to celebrate with you all! ❤️ 💛

Gorilla Giving Day is on Wednesday, March 11th!

You can directly impact the PSU campus by making a $10 or more donation to your fund of choice, whether that's the College of Arts & Sciences, Business, Education, Technology, or the general annual fund.

Advancement Ambassadors will be tabling in the Student Center, where you're welcome to bring cash donations or show us your receipt for online giving. Once we verify your donation, you'll be able to receive a green graduation cord that signifies your acceptance into the 1903 Society! This group is composed of other generous individuals who have started their legacy of giving while still a student.

We look forward to seeing you on Wednesday and can't wait to partner with you to support this campus. Also, don't forget to dine local and participate in the Dine for the Deans Challenge! Check out PSU Foundation, Inc. for more details!

Let's get giving 🙌

Don't miss your chance to join the Advancement Ambassador team! Applications are due next Friday.

Listen as Kylie, Lindsay, and Addi share about their experiences in Advancement Ambassadors. These ladies are awesome, and we are so thankful to have them on our team as we strive to represent Pitt State well to others!

Say hey to Bianca! She's a senior studying Mechanical Engineering Technology and this is her first year as an Advancement Ambassador.

Something she's enjoyed about the organization is the chance to interact with so many PSU alumni and learn about the ways in which they give back to the university, "whether it is through donation of time, money or resources." This has stirred in her a feeling of gratitude that she feels is important to share among her peers—something that she gets to do by being an Ambassador. As she nears the end of her time in the organization, she's looking forward to graduating and continuing to give back to the PSU as an alumnus herself.

If you would like to start your legacy of giving back, you can do so by serving as an Advancement Ambassador next school year. Applications are open until March 13th, so don't miss your chance to apply! We look forward to seeing your giving-back journey start now🤗

Meet Callie!

She's an Accounting major who's in her second year as an Advancement Ambassador, an opportunity she first learned about through her work as a student employee in the University Development Office.

Callie said, "They talked about how it would be an amazing opportunity to make connections and learn more about philanthropy, and they encouraged me to join. I thought it sounded like a great group to be a part of!"

Besides learning more about the generosity of PSU donors, Callie has enjoyed getting to build new friendships with the other Ambassadors. It's a solid group to be a part of and if you'll be around next school year, the opportunity to join is open! Apply before March 13th using the link in our profile's "About" section—we'd love to meet you and continue developing relationships that will allow us to better serve the university!❤️💛
