OU faculty, staff and students are making a difference in communities across Oklahoma by donating to United Way. Learn how you can help by reading the campus-specific information below.
OU’s annual campaign to benefit United Way of Norman began on Oct. 1 and will continue until Dec. 15 – giving us just over two months to make a difference.
Donations to United Way of Norman help more than 61,000 people each year, including members of the university family. Families who need help finding food and housing. Children dealing with the aftermath of abuse. People struggling with addiction. People who need our support to get them back on their feet. Giving changes everything. Help us fight for better education, financial stability and health for every person in the Norman and OU community.
