EWU to hold 'Giving Joy Day' to encourage kindness, philanthropy

Eastern Washington University is encouraging students and residents to participate in “Giving Joy Day,” Nov. 29.

According to Lisa Poplawski, director of alumni advancement, Eastern’s Giving Joy Day is inspired by “Giving Tuesday,” which is a movement to create an international day of generosity and goodwill at the beginning of the holiday season.

Poplawski explained that the event serves two purposes, one being to help raise $100,000 for EWU scholarships.

The scholarship part of the movement was inspired by EWU President Dr. Mary Cullinan’s “Inspire Awesome” campaign, which started in 2015.
