Glow Big Red

Give, Share and Glow together!

Glow Big Red is a 24-day of giving to the University of Nebraska–Lincoln to raise money for scholarships, colleges, programs, student organizations, inclusion, mental health and much more. The giving day starts at noon on Wednesday, Feb. 14, and continues through noon on Thursday, Feb. 15.

This year, UNL has a goal to receive 5,000 gifts during the 24-hour day of giving. You can help make this happen by making a gift of $5 or more during Glow Big Red. With so many important areas to support at UNL, we hope you will find and donate to the cause that means the most to you. Additionally, every donor of $65 or more will receive a Husker stocking hat!

You can help in three ways:

  • GIVE: Make a gift of $5 or more to your favorite cause during the 24-hour period to help us reach the 5,000 gift goal!
  • SHARE: Show your Valentine’s Day love by spreading the word on social media and using the hashtag #GlowBigRed.
  • GLOW: Show others how your heart GLOWS big for UNL by lighting up your room, home or business!
