\"UWCFDYour Gift Makes a Difference<\/h2>\n

Since 1984, University of Washington employees and retirees have supported the causes they care about most through the UWCFD. Every gift becomes part of a legacy of caring that has sent more than $59 million out into the world. Whether you\u2019re supporting a local food bank or an international relief effort, YOU are making a difference here and everywhere.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s the best part: giving isn\u2019t one size fits all. You choose the organization. You choose the amount. It\u2019s your giving, your way.<\/p>\n

Our 2026 Featured Nonprofit<\/h3>\n

This year we\u2019re excited to spotlight the American Cancer Society (ACS)<\/a>. Their goal is nothing short of ending cancer as we know it, for everyone. With your support, they\u2019ll get a little closer to making that happen.<\/p>\n

Fun Ways to Participate<\/h3>\n

The Evergreen Sale<\/a><\/strong>
\nBring some holiday cheer home with a wreath or swag. Order by November 8. Proceeds benefit the American Cancer Society.<\/p>\n

Lunch and Learn Series<\/a><\/strong>
\nKeep an eye on the schedule! Session start on October 28 with a deep dive into the work ACS is doing right now and continue throughout the campaign.<\/p>\n

Send a High Five<\/strong>
\nWho doesn\u2019t love a good high five? It\u2019s a simple way to celebrate a win, recognize a teammate and brighten someone\u2019s day. For just $5, you can send a digital High Five<\/a> to a coworker and make a difference at the same time. Your donation can support our featured nonprofit or any CFD member charity that is meaningful to you.<\/p>\n

Every High Five spreads appreciation, connection and support for causes that strengthen our communities.<\/p>\n

Keep watching the UW Calendar for more events throughout the 2026 campaign season.<\/p>\n

Become a UWCFD Campaign Coordinator<\/a><\/h3>\n

Every successful campaign runs on the energy of creative, committed coordinators who bring the drive to life in their own departments. Coordinators are our local champions, sharing campaign messaging and engagement opportunities with their teams. We\u2019ll support you every step of the way and help you craft a campaign that fits your department\u2019s culture.<\/p>\n

Interested in representing your department or unit this year? We\u2019d love to have you! Just send us an email<\/a> to let us know.<\/p>\n
