You’re invited to the annual summer gathering of the Buckingham Club of the Twin Cities! This is a great opportunity to meet with fellow UW alumni in the Twin Cities area as well as UW chancellor Jennifer L. Mnookin, UW innovators on the leading edge of transformative Alzheimer’s research, and Badger athletics leaders. You’ll enjoy a spirited evening of socializing, games, Babcock ice cream, and more at a Badger-owned business while we support important UW–Madison philanthropic causes, including the UW Initiative to End Alzheimer’s Research Fund and the Badger Fund in support of UW athletics.
RSVP by August 4.
If you’d like to donate directly to both causes, consider a gift to the Buckingham Club of the Twin Cities Fund.
