It\u2019s almost here, the final week of the 2025 UW Combined Fund Drive! For the first week of December, we\u2019ve got a great lineup of online and in-person activities to celebrate making a difference together! We’ve got all kinds of fun things planned to wrap up the campaign and we hope you’ll join us for one – or more – of these activities.<\/p>\n
As we\u2019re putting this campaign to bed, we\u2019re excited to share cozy warmth and bedtime essentials you can give to support WestSide Baby. Our weeklong effort runs alongside WestSide Baby\u2019s Give Joy campaign and highlights items that offer comfort and care.<\/p>\n
Send a colleague a digital high five\u00a0to brighten their day and support a great cause. You make a $5 gift to a non-profit of your choice, your friend enjoys a note of appreciation.<\/p>\n
Bid on a great collection of gift cards, Husky swag, and experiences for you or your holiday gifting.<\/p>\n
Bring a friend to the UW Tower on the mezzanine level<\/a> for this fun event. $2 gets you a bag of popcorn and every bite supports WestSide Baby.<\/p>\n Discover how local dance organizations use movement to spark connection, creativity and community at this virtual lunchtime gathering. You\u2019ll hear from Velocity Dance Center<\/a>, Third Place Commons<\/a> , the Pacific Northwest Ballet<\/a> and The Dance School.<\/a> (<\/strong>Register<\/a>)<\/p>\n The brewery will donate $1 from every full-priced food item and drink (including non-alcoholic) purchased to support WestSide Baby, our featured nonprofit. We will have a WestSide Baby representative present too!<\/p>\n Continuing our weeklong campaign from Monday, who doesn\u2019t love cozy mornings in pajamas with cereal and cartoons? Help bring that warmth to kids this winter with cozy essentials, in support of WestSide Baby\u2019s Give Joy campaign.<\/p>\n Food insecurity continues to affect communities across Washington. Help neighbors in need by donating to local food banks and making a difference close to home on the final day of the campaign.<\/p>\n UW Combined Fund Drive is year-round!<\/strong>\u00a0You don\u2019t have to wait until next year\u2019s campaign to support great organizations in your community and around the world. Donate or volunteer your time today through the UWCFD!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It\u2019s almost here, the final week of the 2025 UW Combined Fund Drive!
