By standing together, the UNMC community can support meaningful causes that align with its values and positively impact the communities it serves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Below are the ways to participate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>United Way of the Midlands:&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Donate via the email sent today from the United Way of the Midlands or click on this&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/go.unmc.edu\/uwmidlands\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"link, opens in a new window\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">link<\/a>.
