Friday is the final day of the 2019 UNMC United Way campaign. Let’s make it count!
When you give to United Way, you’re making a difference in the lives of thousands of people in our very own neighborhoods. More than 12 percent of people in Omaha-Council Bluffs live in poverty.
If you need more of an incentive, at 3 p.m. Friday, the UNMC United Way Committee will draw prize winners for the final week of the campaign. Prizes this week include:
- Three $25 VISA gift cards;
- A $50 VISA gift card; and
- A pair of Husker football Tickets to the Iowa vs. Nebraska game on Nov. 29
Employees of UNMC who pledge a minimum of $20 (only $1.67 per month) to the United Way campaign will be eligible for the prizes listed above. You can log into eServ and make a pledge before 3 p.m. Friday to be included in the drawing.
