One Day for the Lewis Honors College
On April 21, the University of Kentucky will rally its alumni, friends and fans to support One Day for UK, a 24- hour day of giving where donors can support the college, unit or cause of their choice.
Many areas throughout the university have targeted specific funds for One Day for UK. The Lewis Honors College is raising money for the Marksbury Personal Development Fund to support its Center for Personal Development. The Center for Personal Development partners with students in their exploration of purpose to cultivate self-awareness, wellbeing, and career readiness.
"One Day for UK" supports the university’s comprehensive campaign, "Kentucky Can: The 21st Century Campaign," which increases opportunities for student success, funds innovative research, improves health care, strengthens the alumni network and enhances athletic programs.
To further promote the day, each college, unit and cause is seeking the support of BBNfluencers — alumni, friends, donors and students — to help publicize "One Day for UK" through their personal social media accounts.
You can sign up to become a BBNfluencer here.
On April 21, all supporters should visit https://www.onedayforuk.uky.edu/ to make a gift and to track the day of giving’s progress. All of the college and unit funds will be listed on that page.
To join the online conversation, follow and utilize #OneDayforUK on all social media platforms throughout the day to discuss how donor support and UK has shaped lives.
