Give the gift of hope. Contribute to the IUPUI United Way campaign!

It’s not too late to contribute to the IUPUI United Way campaign.

The success of the IUPUI United Way campaign is critically dependent on the participation of IUPUI employees who contribute each year. This year, the campus goal is $335,000. So far, pledges have reached $314,393, which is $20,607 short of the goal. The good news is that the campus is very close to reaching the participation rate goal of 15%.

By supporting the United Way, IUPUI employees support 105 area United Way agencies that provide needed services such as food, clothing, shelter, community centers, senior centers, job training, mental health and substance abuse services, domestic violence shelters, child maltreatment services and more.
