Last Days of University’s United Way Drive
So far nearly 500 University of Arkansas faculty and staff have contributed more than $100,000 to the United Way of Northwest Arkansas to help local families in need. The drive is still $36,406 short of its goal, and has been extended until Monday, Dec. 19. Organizers are asking faculty and staff to please help by adding one more gift to their holiday list – a gift of hope through United Way.
No donation is too small.
It’s as easy as sending a check made out to the United Way to Marcia Overby in ADMN 425, or as easy as following the personalized links that have been emailed and enable faculty and staff to donate online through university payroll deduction.
Share a little or share a lot, but please do share this year with the United Way of Northwest Arkansas.
Help reach that goal.
