University of Tampa Greek Week 2024



University of Tampa’s (UT) recent Greek Week was an example of the power of community, collaboration, and compassion. This year, they chose to rally behind and raise funds in support for the Ronald McDonald House of Tampa Bay, a decision rooted in their desire to develop meaningful connections with local charities.

Throughout the week, UT hosted a series of events, each designed to encourage camaraderie and support for their chosen cause. From Sidewalk Chalk to Bubble Soccer, Greek Spirit Day to Greek Jeopardy, their agenda was packed with activities aimed at bringing the Greek community together for a common purpose and raising funds for their cause.

The Greek Variety Show was a highlight of the week for the UT community. The show was an incredible display of talent and teamwork; each team performed a 10-minute dance routine. It drew an audience of 950 students, with 280 participants taking to the stage.

Central to their success was the support of the CrowdChange team. Our platform streamlined their fundraising efforts and amplified their impact – helping them exceed their goal and raising nearly $100,000 more than in previous years! Using our peer-to-peer features, including team pages and live leaderboards, UT was able to build momentum and increase donor engagement in a way they never had before. Our new Venmo integration further facilitated donations, making it easier and faster than ever for students to contribute and spread the word.

Ultimately, UT’s efforts yielded outstanding results, with over $160,000 raised for the Ronald McDonald House of Tampa Bay. This unprecedented goal demonstrated the true power of teamwork and community spirit. As we reflect on the success of UT’s Greek Week, we are reminded of the profound difference we can make when we come together with purpose and passion. The CrowdChange team is overjoyed for the University of Tampa and we are grateful to have played a part in their success.
