Subject: Ducks vs Bucks Challenge

Colleagues,

Today is the first day of the Ducks vs. Bucks Giving Challenge! This competition is all about drumming up support for our university and we need your help. We need as many people as possible to make a gift or join the Alumni Association between now and 9 a.m. Tuesday, January 13. Since Ohio State has more than 500,000 living alumni, we’re going to need all the help we can get!

We’re asking all of you to make a gift in the next few days so we can beat the Bucks! You can choose any non-athletic designation that you like, from arts organizations to scholarships to student clubs. Each gift to each designation counts as one gift (i.e. a gift to three designations counts as three gifts). Gifts of all sizes count equally, and UOAA memberships count as gifts, too.

You can make your gift at: giving.uoregon.edu/ducksvsbucks<http://giving.uoregon.edu/ducksvsbucks> or join the Alumni Association at http://uoalumni.com<http://uoalumni.com/s/1540/uoaa/index.aspx?sid=1540&gid=3&pgid=750>.

Once you’ve given, please consider sharing the campaign on all your social media pages. Below are some sample Tweets and Facebook posts to get you started.

Twitter: #DucksvsBucksGivingChallenge! Give to UO and help us beat Ohio State! #GoDucks giving.uoregon.edu/ducksvsbucks

FB: HELP UO BEAT OHIO STATE!
The #DucksvsBucksGivingChallenge starts today! Make a gift to UO academics or join the UOAA by noon on Tuesday and help us win bragging rights over Ohio State. Every gift counts, no matter the size — give now and help UO beat the Buckeyes while supporting academics! #GoDucks giving.uoregon.edu/ducksvsbucks

We’ll also be updating the community on our progress through the UO’s social media (follow @UOGiving and @UOAlumni on Twitter and like “University of Oregon Alumni Association” on Facebook) so feel free to share and re-tweet those posts as they come in.

Thank you everyone for your support, and GO DUCKS!
