2015 Combined Campaign materials due


UNL’s Combined Campaign, “Big Impact — Go Big, Give Big,” finishes Nov. 1. Faculty and staff must turn in paper pledge forms by Oct. 31. Online pledges can be made through Nov. 1.

The Combined Campaign is an annual community pledge drive that benefits three federations — Community Health Charities of Nebraska, Community Services Fund and United Way of Lincoln and Lancaster County. The three federations represent more than 110 local agencies that assist members of the community.

“The UNL Combined Campaign is an opportunity to demonstrate a solid sense of commitment to our community,” Chancellor Harvey Perlman said. “Your gift is important to send a unified message of support from the entire university to the community as a whole.”

Combined Campaign pledge materials have been delivered to UNL employees the week of Oct. 22. UNL is consistently one of the top fundraisers for the drive.

Linda Major, assistant to the vice chancellor for student affairs, is the 2015 UNL Combined Campaign chair.

“Together we can make our community stronger and better. We do just that every day through the work that we do with students,” Major said. “This campaign is our chance to reach out to the wider community to make a powerful, positive difference.”

UNL’s goal is to raise $425,000.

To date, UNL employees have contributed more than $6 million to the campaign.
