There are only four days left to give as part of Drake’s United Way campaign. The campaign is going well, and we’re excited about the progress. Thank you to those who have participated.  Remember, our goal is to achieve approximately a 20 percent participation rate; donating is entirely optional.

If you are interested in contributing, donating takes only a few minutes. An email from United Way with a donation link was distributed to campus on Nov. 6. Contributions may also be designated to specific organizations, such as the Ray Center, the Drake Adult Literacy Center, or the Boys and Girls Clubs.

If our campaign goal is met, all employees will receive the full day off on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving (instead of a half-day). Other incentives include basketball tickets, Drake merchandise (there’s still some left to give away!), and more. See the incentives page or visit the campaign page to learn more.

For questions on the campaign, contact your campaign ambassador or Nate Reagen at nate.reagen@drake.edu or ext. 2949.

Nate Reagen, President’s Office
