The Duke-Durham Leadership Giving Society celebrates the long-standing connections between Duke and Durham and invites Duke employees to join that tradition through leadership-level gifts to the Doing Good in the Neighborhood campaign. Click here for the stories behind each giving level.
Partnerships between Duke University, Duke University Health System, and the schools, non-profits and community organizations of Durham are historic and continue to deepen. The Duke-Durham Leadership Giving Society is a way for Duke employees to shape that growing commitment and to ensure its ongoing vitality through community-based philanthropy. Your combined gift to Doing Good in the Neighborhood — through Duke Community Giving, United Way of the Greater Triangle, or both — determines your giving level.
In preparation for the launch of the Duke-Durham Leadership Giving Society, Vice President for Durham and Regional Affairs Phail Wynn, Jr. visited his long-time friend Mary Duke Biddle Trent Semans, to reflect on Duke’s history in Durham and the importance of community-based philanthropy. The video below features clips from their conversation.
