The University of Nebraska–Lincoln launched Oct. 17 its participation in the Lincoln-area Combined Campaign for Health and Human Services.
The annual community pledge drive runs until Oct. 28. The theme for the drive is “Give Today. Change Tomorrow.”
The Combined Campaign benefits three federations — Community Health Charities of Nebraska, Community Services Fund of Nebraska and United Way of Lincoln and Lancaster County. The three federations represent more than 130 local agencies that assist members of the community.
The university is consistently one of the top fundraisers for the drive. Last year, the university ranked fifth in the campaign, collecting $393,748. Overall, university employees have given more than $7 million to the campaign.
Campaign materials are being delivered to faculty and staff.
