The current health pandemic creates unprecedented needs for the people and organizations we care about, including the University of Nebraska Medical Center community.
Giving Tuesday Now (#GivingTuesdayNow) is a new global day of giving and unity on May 5, in emergency response to the COVID-19 virus. Because of the urgency, it takes place in advance of the traditional Giving Tuesday on Dec. 1.
