About

What is Christmas on Campus?

Christmas on Campus is an annual celebration dating back to 1964 at the University of Dayton. Celebrated each year on the Feast of the Immaculate Conception, Christmas on Campus incorporates students, faculty, and the Dayton community into a one-night celebration. As campus is transformed into a Winter Wonderland, more than 1,000 children from Dayton City Schools are paired with UD students the night of the event. Over our many years, Christmas on Campus has evolved to be a hallmark event that embodies the Marianist tradition and Christmas Cheer.

About Our Committee

The organizational committee for Christmas on Campus consists of about 29 members: eight different subcommittees led by two Co-Coordinators. Specializing in School Outreach, Decorations, Transportation, and more, each member on our committee plays a key role in the implementation of our grand event. Countless hours of hard work and dedication allow us to transform campus into a truly magical spectacle.

What Your Gifts Will Do

More than 1,000 children and other Dayton community members are welcomed onto UD's campus for a night of winter fun. Your donations would help us purchase gifts as small as a pair of gloves for a cold child the night of the event, to large decorations that can be used year after year. Christmas on Campus would not be as successful of an event without generous donors like you.

Each year during the Feast of the Immaculate Conception, our campus becomes a winter wonderland for Dayton Public School children and other members of our community to enjoy. This year, Christmas on Campus is celebrating its 60th year and the student planning committee is commemorating the occasion by working with Flyer Media to develop a documentary film. In order to produce this amazing piece the Christmas on Campus team needs your support!
