Join us for next year’s Giving Day on May 1, 2025!

June 6, 2024

Palmer alumni answer the call—for their profession, their colleagues, and their alma mater. That’s why this year, we’re asking you to answer the call and make a gift on Giving Day to show current and future Palmer students the impact and influence of Palmer Nation. You’re not only the hero our students need, but the hero they deserve.

Save the date to join us for Palmer College’s 2024 annual Giving Day to rally Palmer Nation to inspire and celebrate individual giving that will support the next generation of chiropractors.

Giving Day last year was a huge success thanks to our alumni, faculty, staff, students, and friends of the College. Your participation in this year’s Giving Day, through a gift and by using your social media and chiropractic network to encourage others to give, will ensure we surpass our 2023 results and can support all Palmer students this year!

Giving Day Advocates

Advocates ignite Palmer College alumni, faculty, students and grateful patients to spread the word about our Giving Day and encourage people to make a gift to the College either before or on that day. You also make a gift yourself and challenge others to do the same.

If you’d like to be a Giving Day Advocate, contact Karie Gilson at 563-884-5136 or karie.gilson@palmer.edu.

Giving early (before June 6, 2024)
I’m very proud to be a graduate of Palmer College of Chiropractic—the first and best chiropractic college in the world! Every year, the Palmer Nation answers the call to support current students through Palmer College’s Giving Day on June 6, an event that year after year shatters fundraising efforts. It’s a very important day for the College! This year, I’m giving early to help us meet our goal on Giving Day, and I’m asking all my classmates and colleagues to join me today! www.palmer.edu/givingday.

On the day (June 6, 2024)
Here we go! Today is the annual Palmer College Giving Day, and I’m answering the call to support <FILL IN THE BLANK, specific program, fund, class, campus, etc.>. I’m proud to be a chiropractor and support Palmer students who are getting the very best chiropractic education in the world. Join me in making a gift right now, www.palmer.edu/givingday.

Hi [Name]! As a proud Palmer College alumnus, I’m supporting Palmer College’s Day of Giving. This day helps support students’ education, specific programs, and so much more. I thought you might want to join and help support Palmer. Visit www.palmer.edu/givingday to learn more!

General/Anytime
I love how much fun Palmer College makes Giving Day each year. This year, they are asking all of us to “answer the call” to be a superhero for current students. They are hoping that at least 375 of us give a gift of ANY amount! I’ve made my gift. Join me: www.palmer.edu/givingday.
