[cid:image002.png@01D35180.9EFF94D0] 3 WEEKS (17 DAYS TO GO!) We have 3 WEEKS TO GO!!!!!! We are currently at $620,858, almost 79% toward our original goal of $785.000 Keep advocating, keep informing, keep encouraging, keep doing the amazing work you are doing! All Deans/Dept Heads/Directors will be contacted next week after the next Email is sent from United Way on November 1st and asked to email their units to encourage individuals to participate. Please note: the Purdue campaign ends on Nov. 15 and will culminate with a Victory Celebration Luncheon. It will be important to share with your areas that for those that want to make a pledge to the campaign, they must do so BEFORE Nov. 15. The ePledge site will not be able to accept payroll deductions after that date. Purdue Victory Celebration Lunch & Presentation - RSVP by Nov. 13 Victory is around the corner. I would like to ask that each College/Unit create a poster board sign with their unit's fundraising total. Senior/Junior Chairs and team captains can work together to make your sign. The sign should have your units name and fundraising total so that everyone can celebrate each other's successes. Please register for the Purdue United Way campaign Victory Celebration on the website: https://www.uwlafayette.org/purdue/events/VC and include any dietary preferences.
