Why Give to Union?

“We share a common bottom line, changing lives and building the healthy community that cares about all of its people. To serve is to live.” -Frances Hesselbein

At Union, we have the distinct opportunity to provide our learners with opportunities to engage in socially relevant studies that can impact their communities, families, and workplaces. Union’s commitment to this next generation of leaders calls for rigorous and relevant academic programs, quality learner services, innovative delivery models and—most importantly—your support.

Underpinning each UI&U academic program is the understanding that there is no greater purpose for education than the preparation of a life dedicated to the service of others. Union not only prepares our learners to succeed academically and within their careers, but to also bring a much-needed significance to their works, modeling the Union vision in their commitments to community and social justice. In fact, our learners are the best and most momentous examples of Union’s significance in higher education. They are proof that Union’s mission is more than just words on a piece of paper. This is transformative education that can change the world and make a difference in the lives of others.

Union’s commitment to this new wave of learners and leaders means that we must do more than simply provide critical learner services, academically rigorous and relevant studies, and an innovative, transformative platform—it also calls for intentional financial support from Union’s community, friends, and generous donors.

Yes, I want to make a contribution today to support UI&U learners!
