UAF participates in national #GivingTuesdayNow
May 4, 2020
— by Dan White, chancellor
As chancellor of UAF, I am heartened by faculty, staff, alumni and donor support for our students. In the spirit of collaboration, and as an additional effort to rally around our students as we head toward the first-ever “virtual commencement” on May 23, we have joined forces with schools, hospitals and nonprofits nationwide to celebrate #GivingTuesdayNow. This global day of giving and unity takes place today, May 5, as an emergency response to the unprecedented need caused by COVID-19.
Join us in the power of generosity by staying connected and helping our students now.
Here are a few ways you can participate:
- Donate a cash gift now through the UAF crowdfunding page.
- Transfer a gift from your IRA, stocks or a donor-advised fund. For more information, please contact our Development Office at uaf-giving@alaska.edu.
- Spread the word using #GivingTuesdayNow and #NanookNation, or take a selfie with your UAF gear (or even a homemade sign) and post it to social media. Tag a few friends, fellow staff, faculty and alumni.
Thank you for your support of our students, and thank you for choosing UAF!
— Chancellor Daniel M. White
