UNMC Chancellor Jeffrey P. Gold, MD, and Nebraska Medicine CEO James Linder, MD, are urging the UNMC and Nebraska Medicine community to get involved with the For the Greater Good giving day. The event begins at noon Wednesday, March 27, and runs through noon Thursday, March 28.
In this video message, Dr. Gold and Dr. Linder ask the med center community to find a cause, donate $5 or more and then spread the word to family, friends, colleagues and on social media.
Gifts may be made online at the giving day website: greatergoodgivingday.org.
For UNMC and Nebraska Medicine’s 24-hour online giving event, donors have established 69 challenges, totaling more than $571,000, to encourage alumni, friends and grateful patients to support their favorite college or area. The matches and challenges will be unlocked if certain giving goals are achieved.
The goal of the 2024 For the Greater Good event is to receive 1,800 gifts of $5 or more to support UNMC students, scholarships, research and the people, programs and patients of Nebraska Medicine.
Giving day donors who make gifts totaling $66 or more will receive a UNMC/Nebraska Medicine custom travel pouch.
The UNMC and Nebraska Medicine community can help spread the word on social media using the hashtag #ForTheGreaterGood.
