Friends of Fondren Library at Rice University

🎥 We’re on a roll with the Digital Media Commons camera project!

Today is Rice’s 24-Hour Challenge, and supporters of Fondren Library are already helping move this project forward.

We’re raising funds to standardize the camera fleet in the Digital Media Commons so students spend less time navigating different equipment and more time creating meaningful work.

📸 Eight cameras. Hundreds of students. Immediate impact.

The Friends of Fondren Library Board has pledged a $5,000 match once we reach $10,000 in gifts, so every contribution made today helps move us closer.

If you’ve already given, thank you! And if you’re still considering where to participate in today’s challenge, we’d love to have you join us.

Please join us in supporting Fondren Library during Rice University's 24-Hour Challenge.

We’re raising $16,000 to standardize the camera fleet in the Digital Media Commons with new professional-grade cameras for students and faculty. A unified set of equipment means fewer learning curves, stronger technical support, and more equitable access.

When we reach $10,000 in donations, the Friends of Fondren Library Board will donate an additional $5,000 for the project.

Help us give students consistent tools so they can focus on their ideas.

Give today and help us unlock the match. https://www.givecampus.com/s/fgczww

Happy 4th of July! We'll close Friday, July 4 and re-open on Monday, July 7.
