Special Denim Spirit Day is July 5

There will be a Special Denim Spirit Day on Friday, July 5, to benefit the Heart Walk, the American Heart Association’s premier event for raising funds to save lives from this country’s No. 1 and No. 5 killers – heart disease and stroke.  The 2019 Red River Valley Heart Walk will be on Sept. 12 in Fargo.

Be comfortable and wear denim and/or UND colors or clothing that day, to show your spirit.  Give what you can to your Denim Day site coordinator or send your donation directly to Janelle McGarry, Twamley Hall Room 409, Stop 8381.   Your contributions help this organization that has a great impact in our community and others.  Even if you wear denim every day, donate a dollar for these charities.

Checks should be made out to “Denim Day.”  Please mark “Special Denim Day” on your the envelope and the date of July 5 and send to Twamley no later than July 12.

Want to save yourself the hassle of trying to remember if you paid every Friday or forgot your dollar?  Sign up for payroll deduction at http://www1.und.edu/staff-senate/_files/docs/denimday/denimdayspayrolldeductionform.pdf and follow the instructions.
