Update - Friday, January 22nd

To the Northwestern community:
Last night, the coalition of student groups dedicated to the NU STANDS WITH HAITI campaign set the goal of raising $8,000 by the end of the month to support relief efforts in Haiti. That is the equivalent to raising $1 per undergraduate. Make sure to give your $1 and get your friends to do the same!

PROGRESS TOWARDS GOAL: $1062 raised in ONE day // $6,938 left to reach our $8,000 goal by the end of the month.
