Break out the denim! Jean days may be in your future if you choose to participate in the Meyer Foundation for Disabilities’ annual “Denim for Disabilities” campaign at UNMC. <\/p>\n

Employees can purchase a “Denim for Disabilities” sticker for a minimum of $1 and wear jeans to work for that day, anytime between Jan. 27 and Feb. 21.<\/p>\n

Proceeds support recreational therapy programs for adults with disabilities at the Munroe-Meyer Institute. Hundreds of families benefit from these services each year.<\/p>\n

Contact Kim Bainbridge<\/a> at 402-559-5771 to set up “Denim Day(s)” in your department and obtain stickers.<\/p>\n

Those who already have a designated casual dress day can contribute by donating $1 and wearing the sticker. Groups of all sizes are welcome to participate.<\/p>\n

The “Denim for Disabilities” campaign precedes the “Walk and Roll for Disabilities” to be held on March 2 at Oakview Mall this year.<\/p>\n

You can also contribute to the cause by eating at Don and Millie’s (at the intersection of Farnam and Saddlecreek) on Wednesdays in February from 5-9 p.m. A portion of the proceeds from those receipts will be donated to the Meyer Foundation for Disabilities.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
