UAF United Way Campaign Zoom events

December 1, 2020

University Relations

UAF’s United Way’s Campaign will kick off Dec. 1 and run through Dec. 10. Marcia Cassino, UAF's campaign coordinator and assistant to the vice chancellor for student affairs, has worked with United Way staff to create a campaign that maintains social distancing with no in-person events.

UAF has set a goal to raise $40,000 and will host five lunchtime live Zoom events. Each event will feature a different agency partner. Learn how your donation makes a difference in the community through the eyes of the agencies and recipients.

Anyone who attends one of these events and makes a donation to any United Way agency will be entered to win an Alaska Airlines ticket.
