On October 13, the University of Florida officially kicked off the Go Greater campaign. This $3 billion fundraising campaign will secure resources that will allow UF to address some of society’s biggest challenges while also enhancing its status among peer institutions across the country.
DCP prepared for the Go Greater campaign by holding the first ever DCP Leadership Summit. After that event, the college celebrated with its annual Alumni Tailgate. If you want to help DCP Go Greater, please visit the DCP Advancement website for more details.
