This is Hotty Toddy in Action!

The Ole Miss Alumni Association is a family, a home and a lifelong connection to the place we all love. Through programs that bring us together, we strengthen the University of Mississippi and create a welcoming space for Rebels past, present and future. Your support on Giving Day helps us continue to open doors for outstanding students and future leaders through vital scholarship initiatives. You can also make a lasting impact on Giving Day by contributing to the new Triplett Alumni Center — a welcoming, four-story home overlooking the iconic Grove, designed to bring generations of alumni together and ensure the spirit of Ole Miss thrives for years to come.

Increase your impact! Your gift goes further when you participate in one of our challenges or matching gift opportunities below.

It’s easy to give! Ole Miss Giving Day accepts Apple Pay, Venmo, PayPal, all major credit cards and now Donor-Advised Fund (DAF) gifts, allowing you to recommend a grant from your charitable fund through our platform. Consider becoming a monthly donor to build a long-term legacy!
