During that time, 4,364 UW faculty, staff and retirees raised $51,697 more than the previous year. The funds went to 1,755 charitable nonprofit groups.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It was our goal to exceed our 82 percent participation rate from last year. We do care, and our support is a team effort,&#8221; said Hope Friedlander, human resource manager for the UW Center for Commercialization. &#8220;Together, we raised funds in support of more than 60 organizations worldwide. Little amounts add up. Especially during difficult economic times, it&#8217;s our duty to be passionate about causes. One dollar can go a long way; it can save lives or provide a vaccine for children.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Read <a href=\"http:\/\/www.washington.edu\/uwcfd\/events.html#news\" target=\"_blank\">more<\/a> about the UW Combined Fund Drive.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For the second year in a row, the UW Center for Commercialization (C4C) had the highest participation rate for the UW Combined Fund Drive, part of the state\u2019s workplace giving [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4658","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-general-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pixelube.com\/work\/c4c\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4658","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pixelube.com\/work\/c4c\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pixelube.com\/work\/c4c\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pixelube.com\/work\/c4c\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pixelube.com\/work\/c4c\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4658"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.pixelube.com\/work\/c4c\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4658\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pixelube.com\/work\/c4c\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4658"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pixelube.com\/work\/c4c\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4658"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pixelube.com\/work\/c4c\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4658"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
