Purdue United Way Kickoff

What's possible when Purdue comes together? Join us on Wednesday, September 23, 2026, from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. on the Purdue Memorial Union Front Lawn and find out as we launch the 2026 Purdue United Way Campaign.

Come experience:

· Chat with many of the 23 nonprofit partners funded by United Way of Greater Lafayette and hear firsthand how they are building stronger futures across our community.

· Enjoy treats for lunch with a donation to the Purdue United Way campaign.

· Listen to live music and connect with colleagues.

· Say hello to Purdue Pete, take a pic with the Boilermaker Xtra Special, and keep an eye out for a few special surprises throughout the event.

Rain Location: In the event of inclement weather, the kickoff will move indoors to the East/West Rooms on the first floor of the Purdue Memorial Union (near the campus map display).

Together, with your help, we can have another great year of local community impact. To learn more about the Purdue United Way 2026 Campaign, contact Lisa Duncan, llduncan@purdue.edu.
