Going where no flamingo has gone before

It’s here! Every year, in honor of one of the most memorable UW pranks ever pulled, we fill Bascom Hill with as many plastic lawn flamingos as we can. Each flamingo represents one gift made to the university. Now, join us for a three-day digital flamingo fete as this beloved UW tradition goes fully virtual for the first time!

Give a gift to any UW fund and not only will you be helping the university meet its most pressing needs, you’ll also receive a secret link to access online flamingo fun that you can enjoy from anywhere in the world — from social frames to digital backgrounds and more. Every gift adds a flamingo to the (virtual) hill and helps the UW stay strong.

Want to go beyond digital and earn some real-life Fill the Hill swag? Consider a gift at the premium level!

Give $75 or more to receive a flamingo-adorned face mask.
For every $250 you give, we’ll ship a collectible plastic lawn flamingo to your home. That’s one flamingo if you give $250, two flamingos if you give $500, and so on.
