Express your pride!

2008 UAA Family Campaign for Faculty and Staff

You've heard a lot about it.
You know your participation is important.
Your invitation to give is in the mail!

Express your pride in UAA by becoming a donor to the University. It's easy and a wonderful demonstration of your pride in UAA.

Your information to participate in giving is being distributed by intercampus mail. Use the form to make your one-time gift or sign up for payroll deduction and return it to University Advancement, Admin 236. Thank you.

Your benefits as a valued donor to UAA include:

• Your name appears on the 2008 Employee Donor Honor Roll
• You are invited to an honorary coffee with Chancellor Ulmer in September
• You become a hero to every current and future student across our campuses.
  

Chancellor Fran Ulmer comments on the Family Campaign at UAA: "Thank you for the important role you play in our students' lives. Your energy, talent and hard work help students accomplish their goals and reach their dreams. Your generous financial contributions support much needed scholarships and provide funding for increased program opportunities that we otherwise could not afford. Giving to the University sends a powerful message about your pride in this institution. It demonstrates collective support of UAA from its faculty and staff. I hope you will join me in strengthening UAA by making a gift this year."

When you make a gift to UAA you show external constituents the power of collective giving and the importance and impact of our life's work at UAA. Every gift makes a difference.

The campaign runs through fiscal year end, but to ensure your gift is counted for this fiscal year, please ensure your gift is received in University Advancement by Thursday, June 26.

You can participate the easy way by making your secure gift on the UAA Web site at www.uaa.alaska.edu/giving.

*Leverage your employee giving through the 2008 Chancellor's Match.

Chancellor Fran Ulmer is generously making a dollar-for-dollar match for individual gifts up to $2,500 from the Chancellor's undesignated fund for NEW contributions and for any INCREASE over last year's contribution. Your gift will be matched when it is designated to any existing UA Foundation fund, scholarship or program of your choice. This match opportunity ends June 30, 2008.

Payroll deduction is encouraged. Payroll forms must be submitted to the Development Office before June 13, 2008 to receive the match. Eligibility is determined based on giving for last fiscal year. Last year's fiscal year was July 1, 2006 to June 30, 2007.

Contact the Office of Development, University Advancement, at (907) 786-4847 for additional information.
