Christmas on Campus: 60th Anniversary

What is Christmas on Campus?
Christmas on Campus is an annual celebration at the University of Dayton dating back to 1963. Celebrated each year on the Feast of the Immaculate Conception (December 8), Christmas on Campus incorporates students, faculty, staff, 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. This year we are celebrating the 60th year of Christmas on Campus!

About of Committee
The organizational committee for Christmas on Campus consists of 28 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 place.

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 will help us purchase gifts as small as a pair of gloves for a cold child the night of the event and 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.
