Event Recap: 2023 Pi Day Celebration!

This Pi Day, we asked MIT supporters like you to overcome challenge after challenge—and you did not disappoint. Over the course of the MIT 24-Hour Challenge 2023, 8,593 supporters from across the globe made gifts totaling more than $3.71 million! 

 

Not only did we exceed our goal of 3,141 donors to unlock the $50,000 challenge gift from Shang-Chien Sam Kwei ’05, we also passed our stretch goal of 7,000 donors—unlocking an additional $100,000 from two generous MIT alums from ’98 and ’00. Furthermore, all 43 microchallenges met or surpassed their own goals. 

See the initial event invitation below! 27 alumni from the Bay Area attended this event.

Please join fellow MIT Architecture Alumni for conversation, pizza, and drinks for this year’s Pi Day Celebration and the MIT 24-hour Challenge. We’ll gather in person and hear from speakers from across practice areas to celebrate the diverse spaces that a Course 4 degree might lead!
