Glow Big Red — 24 Hours of Husker Giving will take place from noon Feb. 17 to noon Feb. 18. Now in its third year, this event is quickly becoming an honored Husker tradition. The event harnesses the power of Nebraska’s supporters and shows how this powerful network can come together to support Husker students, improve the educational experience and keep quality education accessible to all.

Here are the top three ways to participate:

  • First, give. Make a gift of $5 or more during this 24-hour period to support Husker students and help the university reach its goal of 2,500 gifts. You can choose to give to colleges, participating student organizations, or causes like student leadership, student care and well-being or inclusive community building.
  • Second, light it up. Light your room, apartment, home or business in red to let your Husker pride shine.
  • And third, share your story. Using social media, share your Nebraska story and about who inspire you. Use #GlowBigRed to share your story and why you support Nebraska.

Participants can make a gift toward Glow Big Red now through noon Feb. 18.

Those who contribute $60 or more will receive a Nebraska scarf as a thank you. Scarfs will be mailed three to five weeks after the event.
