Get your spoons, and appetites, ready.
Employees of UNMC who have donated a minimum of $5 to the United Way are invited to a free ice cream social event from 2 to 3:30 p.m. today, in the Sorrell Center, second floor commons. To receive free ice cream, employees must show a printout receipt of their United Way pledge (or you can show the receipt on your mobile device). Bring $1 bills to donate for EXTRA toppings.
If you have not yet donated, donations of at least $5 also will be accepted at the social.

This week’s prizes include:
