Hawkeyes Give Back

Why do people give? There's a spark, a pull, a passion, or an experience that inspires one person to help another. And so begins a chain, a network of those who are making a difference.

Enter Hawkeyes. We are collaborative, caring, hardworking, and forward-thinking. Together, we have the power to change the world.

Hawkeyes Give Back promotes Iowa's unique culture—through events, programming, and communication—to show UI students, alumni, and all who love Iowa how the generosity of Hawkeyes has shaped our remarkable university.


Phil Your Cup on National Philanthropy Day

Friday, November 15
7:30 a.m.–noon
(or while supplies last)

Celebrate National Philanthropy Day and “phil” up your cup with a free drink from JT’s Sips! The first 250 students will also receive a free Iowa stainless steel tumbler.

Each student must present their UI student ID to receive one free 16-ounce hot drink or 24-ounce cold drink in a cup provided by JT’s Sips.

Test your knowledge (and win prizes) with Iowa trivia—and learn about how philanthropy makes a difference for students like you at the University of Iowa!
