All employees who contribute by Friday, Jan. 17, will have the chance to win two round-trip coach tickets on United Airlines for any destination (limited to $1,000 total).

Through "Giving to Help," members of the faculty and staff may support any established charity in the United States. Over 160 independent organizations, including various programs within the University, benefited from last year's campaign.

In 1995-96, the University community contributed over $114,000 to the United Way and over $128,000 to other charities.

To contribute to "Giving to Help," simply fill out and return either the yellow or the blue card included in the campaign information sent to all employees. Gifts may be made to the United Way or to a specific charity. Options include payroll deduction and making a cash contribution.

Employees who need a pledge card can get one by contacting Human Resources at 702-9600.
