To further help the college reach its goal, PVM faculty and staff are asked to challenge themselves and their office teammates to establish a set amount to contribute to the United Way Campaign. Another option is participating in incentive activities and a silent auction, which runs through October 28.&nbsp; Items up for bid in the online auction include a Purdue Union Club Hotel stay, Exercise Package, Wellness Packages, Gift Certificates, Professional Hand Painted Portraits, a Coffee Basket, and much more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Start bidding, or track how your bids are doing now on the Silent Auction 2022!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s easy to give to the college campaign, whether through an incentive activity or via the Purdue United Way campaign website.&nbsp; And even declining to give counts as a response, and helps the college as it seeks to achieve a 100-percent participation rate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, take action today to join the effort to help create a stronger community by participating in the United Way campaign.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The numbers tell the story \u2013 the Purdue University College of Veterinary Medicine is progressing toward its goal of raising $18,080 as part of the Purdue University United Way fund drive this fall.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":16984,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[40,41,268,28,29,42],"tags":[56,653,1313],"class_list":["post-16963","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-community-engagement","category-faculty-staff","category-giving","category-our-impact","category-our-people","category-students","tag-homepage","tag-united-way","tag-united-way-campaign"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/vet.purdue.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16963","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/vet.purdue.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/vet.purdue.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vet.purdue.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vet.purdue.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16963"}],"version-history":[{"count":13,"href":"https:\/\/vet.purdue.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16963\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":34570,"href":"https:\/\/vet.purdue.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16963\/revisions\/34570"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vet.purdue.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/16984"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/vet.purdue.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16963"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vet.purdue.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=16963"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vet.purdue.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=16963"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
