Grateful Bulls Day is a university-wide event hosted annually by the USF Foundation to engage students in expressing appreciation for the university’s philanthropic donors. Held across the Tampa, St. Petersburg, and Sarasota-Manatee campuses, the event encourages students to write personal thank-you notes that are shared with donors throughout the year. Students also learn how private giving directly supports their education and creates opportunities for the university community as a whole. With music, snacks, and giveaways, Grateful Bulls Day is both a meaningful and festive celebration of gratitude.
