Celebrating the Spirit of Giving at Iowa
Each fall, the University of Iowa invites faculty, staff, and the campus community to harness the spirit of generosity through the “Hawkeyes for Charity Fall Giving Campaign.” This year’s campaign underscores the power of collective impact in our local communities by highlighting three key partner agencies whose missions reflect compassion and transformation.
Why it matters
When you give—even in small amounts—you play a role in strengthening neighborhoods, supporting individuals in crisis, and building systems of care. Whether it’s helping children succeed, delivering essential groceries, reducing health disparities, or ensuring resilient communities—we all can be part of the change.
