WHY SUPPORT A&P?
We Support Students and Faculty
The staff at the University of North Florida are the backbone of our vibrant and supportive community, contributing to the university's mission in countless ways. From ensuring students receive personalized academic guidance to maintaining smooth operations across classrooms, labs, and offices, staff members create an environment where learning and growth thrive. We provide essential services, such as mental health counseling, instructional support, and administrative expertise, while also organizing events, managing resources, and fostering connections within the campus community. Together, we create a foundation that empowers students and faculty to excel, making UNF a place of innovation, excellence, and success.
Community Impact
Through our dedication to community service, we make a meaningful impact in the local area by organizing initiatives like the annual holiday toy drive, where we collect and donate gifts to local charities to support families in need. The commitment of our staff extends further through active volunteerism, including participation in food drives, mentoring programs, environmental cleanups, and educational outreach efforts. These efforts help us build strong connections with the community, reflecting our shared values of service and compassion.
Creating a Culture of Care
As the A&P Association, we are dedicated to fostering a culture of care on campus by supporting both our colleagues and the broader university community. Through our initiatives, we create an environment where staff feel valued, connected, and empowered to contribute to the university’s success. We organize events and provide resources that encourage professional development, personal well-being, and community engagement. By supporting each other, we build strong relationships that extend beyond our work, creating a campus culture of compassion, understanding, and mutual respect. Our collective efforts help ensure that everyone at UNF, from staff to students, feels cared for and supported in their journey.
OUR IMPACT BY THE NUMBERS
What is the $1 Campaign
The $1 Campaign is our effort to raise money for the A&P Association to fund our events such as the holiday party and annual breakfast as well as our initiatives: Mentorship, EIGs and the Staff Spotlight. By increasing our funds, we're able to do more for our members and give back to our Osprey community!
Our goal is to reach $100 of recurring payroll contributions!
How long is the campaign?
We're kicking off the campaign with our Week of Love on February 10, and we'll run promotional activities until we reach the end at the A&P Breakfast on May 8, 2025!
How can I support?
No purchase or contribution is necessary in order to support the $1 campaign, but we are asking everyone who is able to give through recurring payroll contribution to do so! You are also able to make one-time gifts through early giving towards Giving Day 2025! We also ask for your help in spreading the word on this campaign and supporting the A&P Association by signing up for mentorship, starting an EIG, or nominating someone for Staff Spotlight!
