Matches and Challenges

One of the great things about Day of the Badger is that it’s as fun as it is philanthropic — thanks in part to your ability to take on challenges and meet your match. That’s right. You can amp up the fun quotient by giving to a match and watch your dollars go twice as far. Or participate in a challenge to help unlock an even larger gift. Then be sure to check out the leaderboards and root for your favorite matches and challenges. Told you it was fun.

When you make a gift to any of the milestone-based challenges below, you’ll be on the way to amplifying your impact. That’s because when a challenge’s goal is reached, additional dollars will be unlocked and go toward a desired UW passion area.
