Dear UNLV Community, 

When Rebels come together, we make incredible things happen.

Tomorrow marks the launch of Rebels Give, UNLV’s biggest crowdfunding event of the year. Over the past 8 years, our Rebel community has raised more than $2.9 million—and this year, we’re ready to make an even bigger impact. You have the power to support the causes on campus that mean the most to you. 

From innovative research and mental health services to the arts, food security, and community initiatives, your gift – no matter the size – makes a real difference. Visit the Rebels Give online giving portal at rebelsgive.unlv.edu, select the causes you want to support, and watch the totals increase throughout the day.

To celebrate Rebels Give, we’re bringing back the popular Pie on Pida event on the Maryland Parkway campus with a live DJ, activities, exclusive Rebels Give swag, and of course the pie-ing of campus leaders. 

From 11:15 a.m. – 12:15 p.m., donate $5 per pie to any cause on campus and get the chance to toss a shaving cream pie at some of your favorite UNLV leaders, including deans, faculty and staff, and CSUN President Allister Dias. They’ll be battling it out to bring in the most donors, with the top fundraiser earning the first-ever Pie on Pida trophy.

So please get involved and celebrate your UNLV Rebel pride. Make a gift, spread the word, and share your Rebels Give experience using #RebelsGive.

Let’s pull together to make this year’s Rebels Give the biggest one yet!

Thanks in advance for your support,

Chris Heavey

Officer in Charge
