Gifts that are made by your contacts using your unique ambassador link during Day of Giving—between 5 a.m. (PT) on May 13 and 5 p.m. (PT) on May 14—will be tallied next to your name on the ambassador leaderboard.
Every ambassador who receives at least one gift on the ambassador leaderboard will be entered into our raffle for two Director’s Level tickets and field passes for a football game of their choice.
Located inside the Stanford Stadium Skybox, Director’s Level seating offers outstanding field views, complimentary premium food and beverages, a Galvez Lot parking pass, and exclusive, expedited entry to Stanford Stadium. Field passes provide exclusive access through the player tunnel and onto the field for pregame warmups, where you can enjoy up-close views of the team and experience the energy of game day from the field at Stanford Stadium.
In addition, the top three ambassadors who bring in the greatest number of gifts will unlock additional dollars for a fund of their choice. First place unlocks $25,000, second place unlocks $15,000, and third place unlocks $10,000! First place will also receive two Director’s Level tickets to a football game of their choice!

Hi [NAME],
I know you love Stanford as much as I do, so I wanted to let you know that we’re celebrating Stanford’s Day of Giving today! It’s been exciting to see so many in our community giving back.
Today is a great day to support areas of the university that are meaningful to you: That’s because gifts up to $5,000 will be matched dollar for dollar until 5 p.m. (PT) on May 14 (or until matching funds run out). There are also lots of fun challenges and leaderboards to unlock additional matching funds!
