Employee Giving Campaign
Online Auction for University System of Georgia FoundationSep 02, 2019 12:00 PM to Nov 29, 2019 12:00 PM
Dear Sir or Madam:
Each year, the State of Georgia holds the State Charitable Contributions Campaign in conjunction with the United Way of Georgia. As an agency of the state, the University System of Georgia and the University System of Georgia Foundation participate in this annual campaign to provide need-based scholarships for deserving students at the twenty-six public higher education institutions across Georgia.
As one of our fundraisers, we host an employee auction, reaching over 150 employees, on the USG charity website. This continues to be a popular and a very effective way to raise money to help fund these scholarships.
I am writing to request your consideration of donating an item for our auction. Popular items have included admission passes, hotel accommodations, and merchandise.
The campaign officially kicks off in September 2019 and runs through November 2019, so we would need the auction item during this time. Please note that tickets and admission passes to entertainment venues could be valid for use anytime during the upcoming year.
If you have been a partner in this effort in the past, we thank you for your generous support and hope you will continue. If this is your first donation, we appreciate your time and consideration and look forward to partnering with you this year. To show our appreciation, we will publicize your sponsorship in our "Donor's Hall of Fame" on our website at www.usg.edu/charity.
Thank you in advance for your donation. Responses and donations can be emailed to our Director of Finance and Operations, Christina Paloski, at Christina.paloski@usg.edu and mailed to the address below.
Sincerely,
Karen McCauley
Vice Chancellor for Development
