Support Graduate Studies

In 2015, when membership dues were eliminated, the UNMC Alumni Association partnered with the University of Nebraska Foundation and each college to create a new annual giving program. This program created Innovation Funds that promote academic excellence and innovation in each college, and support the people and programs of the UNMCAA. See the impact of these innovation funds.

Gifts to the Graduate Studies Innovation Fund are directed toward emerging, critical priorities, allowing supporters to take part in important initiatives that impact graduate students and alumni.

The Only in Nebraska Campaign is a fundraising effort by the University of Nebraska to raise $3 billion and engage at least 150,000 unique donors to support students, faculty, academic programs, and research.  

This campaign aims to address the future needs of Nebraska by focusing on student access and success, enhancing faculty and academic excellence, and fostering transformational research and innovation. 

Save the Date: For the Greater Good—UNMC’s 24-hour online giving day—returns April 22–23, 2026, from noon to noon. This is your chance to join alumni, students, faculty, staff, and friends in supporting scholarships, student organizations, innovative programs, and other essential resources. Be part of the fourth annual celebration—and give all for the greater good.
