Gifts to the Queens Fund impact every department and individual at Queens.

Advocate Responsibilities

As an Advocate, you help with creating extra excitement around QUnited through social media and/or email, and encouraging your former classmates, friends, and others to make a gift. You are also invited to make your own gift and asked to consider a challenge or match to inspire others to give. Once QUnited concludes, be sure to thank those in your network who participated with you.
