Tiger Giving Day 2026

Hands-on learning is essential in agriculture, where practical experience and industry connections prepare students for their future careers. The Ag Alumni Mentoring Program provides our students with just that — by pairing students with alumni and industry leaders for personalized career guidance, they are given the opportunity to develop real-world skills and build professional networks vital for their success.

While many of our alumni mentors are nearby, many more are not. This Tiger Giving Day, we are asking for your support to cover travel and related expenses for students in the Ag Alumni Mentoring Program. Your gift will be used directly to cover student travel costs for industry meetings, professional conferences, on-the-job experiences, and professional development activities with the student’s mentor. Your support will allow more students to engage in these opportunities, enhancing experiential learning and job readiness. It will also foster connections with out-of-state alumni and professionals, broadening these students’ networks.

The Ag Alumni Mentoring Program is a key initiative offered through the College of Agriculture’s Student Service Office, which assists students with internships, undergraduate research, job shadowing, and more.

Mark your calendars to donate on the Tiger Giving Day website on March 25 and follow @AuburnAg on social media to stay informed!
