Relentless Focus On Student Access and Success@Model.HeadlineSize>
The top priority of this campaign is ensuring that a University of Nebraska education is accessible, affordable and achievable for every student. The university has made tremendous strides in creating access. But we can do more to attract students to Nebraska and encourage them to stay—to join our workforce, lead the economy of the future and help our communities grow.

Transformational Research and Innovation@Model.HeadlineSize>
Our state and our world face tremendous challenges. The University of Nebraska is uniquely positioned to tackle issues related to hunger, water shortages, health, education and other urgent problems. By supporting researchers and increasing the university’s strength across every field of discovery, we can rise to meet tomorrow’s challenges.
The University of Nebraska Foundation is here to build the future Nebraska needs right now. Together, we have the power to do more for our state. That’s why we stand together on behalf of 1.9 million Nebraskans to launch our new comprehensive campaign, Only in Nebraska.
"In Nebraska, we've shown that when we rally around a big idea and work hard to get it done, anything is possible. Indeed, the unity of purpose in building a better future is something I've experienced Only in Nebraska. Together, we're now poised to bring our cherished University from excellent to truly extraordinary."
“More than 300 volunteers are investing their time and talent to ensure that this campaign, the largest in the university’s history, succeeds. We are grateful for their leadership and support—and have no doubt this campaign will be successful, thanks to their efforts.”
"To fulfill our promise to Nebraska as its flagship, land-grant institution, it is our responsibility to provide resources that elevate our students, helping them reach their full potential in pursuit of lifelong dreams. Now is the time for Husker Nation to build upon 15 decades of academic excellence, further distinguishing our great university as a place where students can flourish while pursuing big ideas and solving global challenges."
"At UNK, we're actively shaping Nebraska's educational future through vital initiatives that address our state's key needs. This fundraising campaign is crucial, as it strengthens our commitment to high-quality, accessible education and ensures every student can succeed. Focusing on rural health, student scholarships, faculty excellence, innovative learning environments and sports performance, we're enhancing both economic and social vitality.”
“UNMC and Nebraska Medicine’s paramount responsibility is to improve people’s lives in Nebraska and beyond. We educate the next generation of health professionals and medical scientists, discover and develop lifesaving cures and treatments, and provide extraordinary care to our patients. It is both our mission and our privilege to work tirelessly to make the world a healthier place, both now and in the future.”
“The most important goal is to empower our students through higher education and improve their social and economic mobility. If we can move students up one or two tiers, then we lift not only our students, but their families, and by extension our community and our state.”
“There’s nothing more exciting than being part of something bigger than yourself, something that will be a legacy for your grandchildren, your great-grandchildren, and many generations to come. When you invest in the University of Nebraska, you’re investing in the future.”
“From climate change, to disease, to better construction methods, to new approaches on computing— we have faculty doing work in all those areas. Philanthropy is just so important to enabling us to accomplish our goals and to deliver on our mission.”
“The quality of your facilities plays a really important role in recruitment. Students want to come to a place and a facility that show you’re taking their education seriously.”
We are stronger together.
