Live Purple Give Gold had 2,174 donors and raised $794,948 — the largest day of giving ever.

Our Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders raised $785 yesterday. We also had many of our alumni share their stories on social media. This raises awareness of our program and attracts more students to UNI and the profession! Our students, faculty, staff and alumni have a lot to offer and we appreciate them!

There is still time to make a gift as part of the UNI Our Tomorrow Campaign. In the designation field, type "Communication Sciences & Disorders Fund for Excellence."

It was exciting to have so many of our alumni back this year for the Hearst Lecture Series and UNI ICCD generosity. Due to the generousity of past donors, we were able to offer the Heast Lecture series free of charge to the public to increase awareness of brain injuries and aphasia.
