On Wednesday, May 20, join the Omaha community in Omaha Gives! – a 24-hour charitable challenge to benefit the community’s nonprofits.
This year’s online fundraising event features nearly 700 local organizations, including the UNMC SHARING Clinics. Tomorrow you have the opportunity to support these student-run clinics as well as other participating organizations.
Visit the Omaha Gives! website on May 20, from midnight to midnight, to make your gift. Every gift will make a difference and help the UNMC SHARING Clinics receive a percentage of a matching challenge gift available to all participating organizations. For every $1 donated, approximately $8 in medical services can be provided.
UNMC SHARING Clinics:
UNMC student and faculty volunteers provide medical care to Omaha’s underprivileged populations by offering high-quality, low-cost health care and human services.
Through the four SHARING (Student Health Alliance Reaching Indigent Needy Groups) Clinics more than 1,400 patients annually receive primary health care, HIV and STD testing, primary care for Type 2 diabetes and vision care.
The UNMC students involved in SHARING change and save lives not only by providing quality care but by managing the clinics’ operations, including fundraising for SHARING’s annual budget.
But UNMC wants to help even more families in need.
Please support the UNMC SHARING Clinics through Omaha Gives!
