Celebration on the South Oval

Join us on the South Oval on April 14 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. and be part of the excitement of OU Giving Day 2026! Stop by to grab lunch, snag your Giving Day T-shirt, and jump into the celebration with photo ops and interactive moments highlighting the impact of philanthropy at OU. Learn how the Giving Day total is climbing, show your support for the university, and share the energy as we rally together to push toward our Giving Day goal. Whether you stay for lunch or just swing by to soak it all in, this is the place to be on Giving Day.

Thanks a Latte 

Say thanks—and get a latte while you’re at it! Thanks a Latte will take place on April 14 from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. (or while supplies last) at two locations: The Grind in McCasland Hall and The Bookmark in Bizzell Library. Students can write a Giving Day–specific thank-you note to one of OU’s loyal donors and help show appreciation for the generosity that powers our campus. As a thank-you for participating, students will receive a $5 voucher redeemable at The Grind or The Bookmark. Coffee, gratitude, and Giving Day spirit—what’s not to love?
