The University of Oklahoma is gearing up for its annual 24-hour fundraising event, OU Giving Day, which is set to take place on April 2. This event plays a crucial role in supporting students, departments, programs, and groundbreaking research across all three OU campuses. One of the key focuses of this year's Giving Day is to raise funds specifically for public health students at the prestigious Hudson College of Public Health.
OU Giving Day serves a dual purpose of fundraising for university programs and educating the OU community about the significance of philanthropy in the educational experience. It aims to inspire students and the broader community while highlighting the transformative impact of charitable contributions.
The mission of the Hudson College of Public Health aligns seamlessly with the goals of Giving Day. The college is dedicated to protecting and improving the health of people through comprehensive public health education, workforce development, cutting-edge research, impactful service initiatives, and effective advocacy efforts.
With a vision to be nationally recognized for its outstanding education in public health practice and research, the Hudson College of Public Health strives for excellence in addressing contemporary public health challenges. This includes conducting innovative research, translating findings into evidence-based practices, shaping public health management strategies, and influencing impactful public health policies.
As part of OU Giving Day, supporters are encouraged to contribute to a fund specifically designated to support public health students at the Hudson College of Public Health. Donations to this fund will directly benefit students by providing financial assistance, supporting research initiatives, facilitating educational opportunities, and empowering the next generation of public health leaders.
Give now to support public health students.
