​During the 1970s, the NBA conducted a fund drive to establish the Nebraska Bankers fund at the University of Nebraska Foundation. The campaign raised approximately $1 million, forming the foundation’s largest single-industry fund. To date, over $5.8 million has been allocated to the four University of Nebraska campuses. It’s part of an ongoing effort by the Nebraska banking industry to retain and attract the best and brightest students to our state.
