The Go Head to Toe for UNO campaign gives University of Nebraska at Omaha (UNO) supporters the opportunity to support important causes at Omaha’s metropolitan university while securing a pair of UNO socks. The campaign runs from April 28 through May 9, 2025.

During the campaign, the first 250 people to set up a monthly gift of $7 or more to support four important UNO causes will receive a pair of limited-edition UNO socks. The four causes donors can support are:

  • UNO Fund – Student Scholarships;
  • Maverick Food Pantry Excellence Fund;
  • UNO Student Hardship Fund; and
  • The One Fund – General Athletics.

The socks will be given away on a first-come, first-served basis while supplies last. Donors also may choose to give a one-time gift of $75 or more to receive a pair of UNO socks. Socks will be given to donors who establish a new monthly or one-time gift during the campaign period using the Go Head to Toe for UNO webpage. Previous giving and existing monthly gifts will not qualify.

To receive the UNO socks with an initial monthly gift of $7 or more, visit https://fundraise.nufoundation.org/campaign/676112/donate

Questions about the campaign can be directed to Joel Gehringer, senior director of annual campaigns at the University of Nebraska Foundation, at joel.gehringer@nufoundation.org.
