UC faculty and staff are encouraged to give back at uc.edu/impact by June 30 to help reach UC’s goal of 75 percent giving participation
10th Annual UC Faculty & Staff Fundraising Campaign Now Underway
When the region’s largest employer embarks on a faculty and staff fundraising campaign, the results are truly transformational.
The University of Cincinnati’s annual Faculty & Staff Campaign, known as “UC the Impact,” is a difference maker for both the university and Greater Cincinnati community. For 10 years, the internal fundraising campaign has been the driving force behind incredible student success.
UC faculty and staff are encouraged to make a gift to the area of their choice at uc.edu/impact by June 30. Gifts can be made online, by check or payroll deductions, or by calling the UC Foundation at 513-556-6781. Every gift matters.
In 2014, the university achieved a record-setting percentage of participation among its various colleges and units. Overall participation totaled 66 percent. This year, campaign organizers hope to reach 75 percent participation.
Donations of all sizes make a difference and can inspire others, including corporations and foundations, to make investments of their own in UC. Over the last five years, UC has risen 27 places in the U.S. News & World Report’s list of “Best National Universities.” Its rise in the rankings is directly correlated to increases in donor dollars.
Volunteer champions will promote fundraising efforts across UC’s departments guided by the leadership of this year’s campaign co-chairs, UC Director of Athletics Mike Bohn, UC Blue Ash College Dean Cady Short-Thompson and UC College of Nursing’s Associate Dean for Clinical Practice Karen Bankston.
Make an impact at and beyond UC. Support UC through the Faculty & Staff Campaign today.
