 Subject: MASSMAIL - Campus Charitable Fund Drive

Dear Colleagues:

As I have said on many occasions what we are about is making the future 
better for individuals, for families, for communities, for all.

This year marks the 75th anniversary of the Campus Charitable Fund Drive.  
The goal is to raise $1 million for the causes that are most important to 
us.  To date we have raised $271,466.  There are four weeks left in the 
campaign before the December 3 deadline for participation, and I write now 
to ask that you join me and so many of our colleagues in this  
partnership.   

This year for the first time the pledge card is on the last page of the 
CCFD brochure.  Please be aware that the pledge you make today will take 
effect January 1, 2005, and will continue until you change it. In 
addition, you can make changes to your charitable deductions at any time 
throughout the year (increasing, decreasing, or stopping) by contacting 
payroll at 265-6363. And, of course, each year at pledge time you will be 
reminded to request changes to your deduction.
  
I am grateful to Mike Andrejasich for his leadership of this year's 
campaign, and to all of those throughout the campus who are working to 
ensure that our campus community continues to support a wide range of 
vital services and programs.  I am proud to be part of the generous spirit 
that is evident in everything we do at this great institution.  Thank you 
for your help.

Very truly yours,



Richard Herman
Interim Chancellor
