Giving Tuesday: UHD Community Invited to Join Global Day of Giving

socialmediabadgeThe University of Houston-Downtown (UHD) is excited to join the worldwide movement #Giving Tuesday on Tuesday, Nov. 29. This event encourages individuals, communities and businesses to give to organizations that help their local area and the world at large.

As part of #UHDGatorsGive , we challenge every member of the Gator family to donate — no amount is too small. Join passionate people like you who have a special cause near to their hearts.

There are two ways to participate in #UHDGatorsGive:

  • Make a gift to UHD! Why not make it a "2 for Tuesday" with a gift of $200, $20, or $2? Your gift can be made in memory or in honor of someone special.
  • Volunteer for the spring UHD Day of Service at the Houston Food Bank from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. on March 4, 2017. RSVP here.

Many employers sponsor matching gift programs and will match any charitable contributions. If you or a loved one works for a matching gift company, you may be able to increase the impact of your gift. Check out the matching gift database to see if you qualify.

Thank you for supporting the University of Houston-Downtown.
