Dear Faculty and Staff,

Colorado College is an active partner in our community. Among the many ways we do this is the college's annual employee giving campaign. Through this combined campaign, Colorado College employees support the annual giving campaigns for the United Way, Community Shares, and Community Health Charities, strengthening our local ties.

The college makes your giving convenient, through payroll deduction as well as online and paper giving options, permitting you to choose from among the over 200 local and national organizations these three campaigns support. And if you still can't find the organization that is close to your heart, you have the option of writing in the organization that matters most to you on the online form.

Each of us has our passion, and I serve our community as a member of the Boards of Directors of the Pikes Peak United Way and Downtown Partnership, because the health of our community impacts our students, our employees, and the community we call home. Please join me in making a difference by giving what you can, to the cause that engages you personally. No gift is too small and every gift matters.

For those of you who have given in the past, thank you! You must still complete the necessary information. Donations can be made through a one-time or re-occurring gift via check or credit card, or the easy-to-use payroll deduction option. All donations are confidential, eligible for tax benefits, and completely voluntary. If you wish to give online or if you have any questions, please go to www.coloradocollege.edu/employeegiving. Also, please check your mailboxes for resources that will be delivered to you.

Warm regards,

Jill
