Day of Giving 2025
Launched in 2019, NC State’s Day of Giving has become a proud Wolfpack tradition. Day of Giving is an annual, daylong fundraising event devoted to bringing the Wolfpack community together for 24 hours of friendly competition, fun challenges, and, of course, #GivingPack — all to make a difference for our students, faculty, research, programs, and more. Many gifts made on Day of Giving — along with the bonuses earned by colleges and programs through challenges and leaderboards — go to work immediately, supporting scholarships, helping students meet basic needs, fueling research, and enhancing campus programs.
Day of Giving helps support our students when they need it most, invests in our faculty’s growth, strengthens our campus programs, and more, as soon as the current academic year. And your gift doesn’t just provide financial support; it encourages our students by showing them that the Wolfpack keeps investing and believing in them, every step of the way.
Support Our Students
There are several methods for supporting our students. We are grateful to those who are already contributing, donating their time to be in our classroom to mentor students or deliver guest lectures; donating their testimony by sharing the goals of the Pappas Program with others in the real estate development and design industry; donating some of their treasure to financially support the Pappas Program, which enable us to reach the goal of a sustaining education program.
We would also like to place our students within the industry during their educational journey. If your company has an internship program for aspiring students, please connect with us so we can share that opportunity with our undergraduate and graduate students.
Contact pappasprogram@ncsu.ed to share your time, testimony, and treasure. Thank you. Go Pack!

Building Community
The Pappas Real Estate Development Program is in the process of launching an Industry Council. The purpose of the Pappas Industry Council is to foster partnerships, as well as network and engagement between faculty, students, and industry leaders. The Pappas Industry Council will provide support and advice to the Director of the Pappas Real Estate Development Program on matters relating to industry needs and trends, academic programs, student development, societal impact, and strategic thinking.
If you have an interest in becoming a member of our Industry Council, please contact Chuck Flink, Director at caflink@ncsu.edu.
