Scripps Forward Campaign: How to Help

Pop-up event at alums home

Our campaign volunteers are the lifeblood of the campaign and essential to its success! There are a multitude of ways the Scripps community can make an impact, including peer-to-peer outreach and social fundraising, serving on committees, hosting in-person and virtual events, recruiting volunteers, and sharing their resources and time. Throughout the campaign, we aim for volunteers to make 100,000 such touchpoints, combined.

Hosting Pop-Up Events

Imagine, create, and host local pop-up events that reflect the spirit of Scripps! Community-led activities build connection with the College’s network around the world. Examples of events include tea, happy hour, potlucks, picnics, museum tours, book clubs, trivia nights, letter-writing, hiking, etc.

Event Support

The Office of Institutional Engagement can help support your event in a variety of ways, including:

  • Send email invitations and event reminders to the Scripps community in your area
  • Manage the event registration process
  • Promote your event in Olive Grove, Scripps’ online network
  • Provide themes and event ideas for pop-up hosts
  • Provide data for those in your area
  • Mail a “Scripps-in-a-Box” kit to help “Scripps-ify” your event
  • In special cases, help subsidize event costs.

If you have an idea for a pop-up event or would like to host, let us know!

Show Your Support on Social Media

Social media plays a crucial role in supporting the Scripps Forward campaign! By sharing updates, event highlights, and campaign stories on platforms like Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn, you help build excitement, encourage participation, and create community.

Six Key Social Tips:

  • Like Posts Regularly: Follow Scripps’ accounts and simply “like” the College’s posts to support without needing to comment.
  • Share Key Posts Occasionally: Share key announcements or major events with a short caption, like “Exciting times at Scripps!” to promote important content.
  • One-Word Comments: Leave brief, positive comments like “Amazing!”, “Proud!”, or “Exciting!” under posts, keeping engagement quick but visible.
  • Tag Colleagues in Comments: Tag peers in the comments, noting “Thought you’d enjoy this,” to show connection and extend reach.
  • Quick Story Reposts: Share the Scripps stories on platforms like Instagram or LinkedIn with a brief reaction (e.g., a thumbs-up emoji or “Great initiative!”).
  • Hashtags: Use #ScrippsForward, #ScrippsCentennialCampaign, and#Scripps100
