About

Powered by Eastern is EMU’s Giving Week — a celebration of what happens when opportunity meets support. For generations, Eastern has been a place where students find their path through scholarship, mentorship, and a community that believes in their potential. This week honors that legacy and invites alumni and friends to carry it forward.

Timed with EMU's Founding Day on March 28, Powered by Eastern connects our past to our future. It highlights the mentors who open doors, the scholarships that change trajectories, and the hands‑on learning that defines the EMU experience. Every gift made during the week fuels the work happening in classrooms, labs, studios, and community spaces across campus.

The week culminates in the Undergraduate Symposium, where students showcase the research, creativity, and discovery made possible by donor support. It’s a powerful reminder that when we invest in students, we don’t just honor Eastern’s history — we shape what comes next.

Powered by Eastern is more than a moment to give. It’s a chance to stand with our students, celebrate our legacy, and help power the next generation of Eastern stories.
