Get Involved: Duke-Durham Campaign
For more than 50 years, Durham and Triangle-area businesses have contributed through the Duke-Durham Campaign to recognize that Duke University's teaching, research, cultural events and health care enrich the Durham community.
Since 1999, Duke has used every dollar raised in this campaign for the Duke-Durham Neighborhood Partnership's work in 12 Durham neighborhoods and eight schools near campus. The 2007 campaign raised $730,882 under Chairman John Messick's leadership.
You can make a difference two ways, by making your own donation or by volunteering to ask local businesses and individuals to contribute.
For Duke Employees that wish to designate their full or partial annual pledge to the Duke-United Way Campaign, please use Code number 1633 for the Duke-Durham Neighborhood Partnership on your pledge card.
