Forget Black Friday and Cyber Monday; Join #GivingTuesday
Join the global movement and celebrate #GivingTuesday with your YOU of A family!
Stuffed from turkey and tired from shopping? Get energized and keep the gratitude going by celebrating #GivingTuesday today!
YOU of A students, faculty, staff and alumni are encouraged to join the second annual movement to outshine Black Friday and Cyber Monday with a national day of charitable giving. It's a meaningful way to kick off the holiday season, and you can even make your gift to the University of Arkansas in honor of a professor, mentor or friend and send them a personalized e-card.
Participating is easy. Simply visit the university's secure online giving site today and designate your gift to the area of campus that matters most to you. Then use #UofAGivingTuesday to help the U of A spread the word on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram and follow the buzz on Storify.
Thanks in advance for celebrating #GivingTuesday with your Razorback family. Your gift makes a difference and your participation makes a statement!
