Enrich the student learning experience. Encourage exploration and research at all levels. Contribute to advancements in access to scholarly resources. This is the mission of the University of Oregon Libraries. With eight locations across the UO, thousands of students pass through our doors every single day. That’s 50,000 people per week who are studying, researching, learning, and growing with the assistance of Library resources.
Today is your opportunity to provide invaluable resources to all UO students. Your gift to the UO Libraries will impact every field of study. From preserving 11th century texts to broadening online databases, the Libraries influence all areas of campus. And with a $500,000 gift to the Science Library to challenge 519 donors to participate in #DucksGive today, your gift can go even further. Make your gift now!
When we set out to start the #DucksGive tradition, we never imagined how far it would go. But you made it huge. We're still tabulating final numbers, but our current numbers say 1502 donors and $1,824,400.
We'll be taking a look at the breakdown in the coming hours to find out the true extent of the amazing impact this money will have, but first, we just want to say thank you.
Whether you made a gift, shared a post, or mentioned the campaign to a friend, you were part of #DucksGive, and we couldn't have done it without you.
So thank you. When Ducks work together, we can do so much more than we ever could alone.
Sincerely,
The University of Oregon
P.S. If you missed your chance to make a gift during #DucksGive, you can still give online at giving.uoregon.edu.
We're down to 4 hours and 5 challenges still open. Can we beat them all?
