Gear Up for TEALstarter and #GivingTuesday 2024!

 

A group of UNCW students

The countdown is on for the kickoff of TEALstarter 2024 – the UNCW crowdfunding platform that gives student organizations and campus groups the opportunity to raise funds for initiatives that enhance the UNCW Seahawk experience. Save the dates for November 11 through December 3 – #GivingTuesday – to make your impact on the UNCW student experience with a gift to a TEALstarter project.

TEALstarter 2024 will feature a wide variety of initiatives, from academic groups exploring study-abroad opportunities to athletic clubs needing new equipment. Every donation to these projects contributes to a richer campus life and creates lasting experiences for students.

Though we’re still a few weeks away from the launch of TEALstarter, you can get involved now by becoming an advocate. Being an advocate is free, spreads awareness of student-led initiatives and increases their likelihood of success. Simply complete the following steps to become an advocate today!

  • Visit the TEALstarter website and click the “Become an Advocate” button located near our campaign countdown (top right on page).

  • Select "sign up" to create your GiveCampus account.

  • Once your account is created and logged in, you can share this campaign with your network.

As we get closer to the kickoff, advocates will receive a TEALstarter toolkit with sample messages, graphics and more to share! Additionally, prizes will be awarded to advocates who help secure 10, 20 and 50 donors.

Learn more about TEALstarter and start making plans today to make your impact in November or on #GivingTuesday.
