UNC HOMEPAGE
Just five more weeks remain in this year's University Campaign, which gives
faculty and staff the chance to become "Carolina Landmarks."
This year's theme encourages all faculty and staff to get more involved in
the life of the University by making a contribution.
As of May 18, about 1,175 University employees had given more than $517,750
to support Carolina academics and programs. Last year's campaign raised $2.8
million with gifts coming from 2,021 employees. That total dollar amount
included a single gift of $1 million.
"So far, we have more donors than last year at this time, which shows
employees are as supportive as ever," said Timothy Minor, associate director of
the Carolina Annual Fund. "We want to thank everyone who has given, and we
encourage those who haven't to join their colleagues."
Past gifts from faculty and staff have funded items ranging from books for
library collections to professorships for faculty members.
"I just want to do something to support this school, this department, these
people who have done so much for me over these many years," retired Kenan
professor of epidemiology Barbara S. Hulka said in November 1999 when she
announced her initial investment of $55,500 and pledge of $333,000 over four
years to establish the Barbara Sorenson Hulka distinguished professorship in
cancer epidemiology at the School of Public Health. "This is something for the
future, to ensure that the good work being done here continues."
Please make your contribution to the campaign by June 30. All donors will
appear in a Gazette honor roll in the fall.
Campaign materials have been mailed to all employees, but replacement
packets can be obtained by contacting Jason McAbee of the Annual Fund Office.
