One Fightin' Spirit. Endless Opportunities.
Every Blue Hen is fightin' for something—on the field, in the lab, in classrooms across campus
and in our communities. This same Fightin' Blue Hen spirit fuels the success of I Heart UD Giving Day
and motivates us to come together for the causes that move UD forward.
This year, there's only one question that matters... What causes are YOU fightin' for?
$71.5 million gift to UD
The commitment from Robert (BE81) and Kathleen (AS85) Siegfried, along with The Siegfried Group, LLP, will benefit UD’s Alfred Lerner College of Business and Economics.
The Day of The Dinosaur

Donors to the Blue Hen Strong Fund address UD students’ most pressing needs.
Established in 2020 to support students through the pandemic, today the BHSF has evolved into UD’s leading tool for rapid-response projects. From housing grants for displaced students; to a virtual platform for free mental health counseling; to internship and career support for those who can’t afford to accept unpaid opportunities; to a laptop loaner program that expands access to necessary technology: the Blue Hen Strong Fund delivers immediate support to students.
When urgent challenges arise, our donors make real-time solutions possible. Together, we are Blue Hen Strong.
