The U of A United Way campaign -- United We Win -- has been extended to Friday, Nov. 3. The goal for the campaign is to raise $160,000 for the United Way of Northwest Arkansas, to support programs that help children in our community who are living in poverty.

As of Sunday evening the U of A faculty, staff and students have donated $85,918, 53 percent of the campaign goal. 

Everyone who turns in a donor card, or goes online at https://unitedway.uark.edu to make a contribution, will qualify for a drawing Thursday for a $1,500 Dell laptop computer.
