The College of Allied Health Professions’ physician assistant class of 2022 is selling nuts (pecans, cashews, almonds, peanuts, etc.) in one-pound bags to help the students raise money for national conferences, community involvement, student representatives and other expenses.

Members of the UNMC community who are interested in purchasing can do so by filling out this online form. Once the form is submitted you will receive an invoice from Square where you can pay via credit card. For questions, contact Kailee Strawmier. Download the flyer.
