From noon to noon Feb. 16-17, Global Affairs is joining the Glow Big Red – 24 Hours of Husker Giving celebration.
Thanks to the generosity of our challenge donor, all gifts up to $500 will be matched dollar-for-dollar as we grow international education and engagement opportunities at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.
Global Affairs – including the International Student and Scholar Office, Global Partnerships and Initiatives, Global Experiences Office (formerly Education Abroad) and Programs in English as a Second Language – aims to break down barriers to global experiences and empower global learning and research opportunities for all.
Any gift of $5 or more can make a world of difference by…
- Providing funding for international students like Joevy Sum, who received a scholarship to help finish her undergraduate research thesis on how climate change affects insects.
- Creating global experiential learning opportunities like the Global Experience course that brought together student entrepreneurs in Rwanda and the U.S. through virtual, cultural exchange.
- Building global partnerships around the world, like the vaccines Dr. Hiep Vu has been developing for porcine viruses with his connections in Vietnam and beyond.
- ADVOCATE: Spread the word about our Global Affairs fundraiser to your network! Even one email, one post can make a BIG difference.
- GLOW: Make your room, home or business glow red to let your Husker pride shine!
- SHARE: Use #GlowBigRed on social media and share why Husker nation should support our international students!
