๐ŸŽ‰ Thank You to Our UNO Heroes! ๐ŸŽ‰

Weโ€™re excited to share some incredible news! Thanks to the generosity of 282 donors who contributed early toward our $150,000 Matching Gift Challenge, weโ€™ve already raised a major $67,679 ahead of GiveUNO Day!

This major milestone proves the power of every gift—no matter the size. Together, these early contributions show that when our alumni and friends unite, all gifts add up to something extraordinary.

But our work is far from over! We still need your help to reach our full goal and unlock the entire match on GiveUNO Day, next Tuesday.

Letโ€™s finish strong and show the strength of our Privateer Pride! ๐Ÿ’™
