We aren't doing "Give to the Max" this year. NOT because we don't need your support. Our staff is so small, the effort required to pull off a successful gift campaign amidst all the Give to the Max "asks" is a challenge. If you appreciate our events, research, and more - you can support us here:
Donate to the University of Minnesota
There are many ways to give that not only help create excellence at the U, but also contribute to your own personal and financial goals.
