Final Days of the Campus Charitable Fund Drive Are Here
November 13, 2020 9:02 AM

Dear Colleagues,

We are in the home stretch for this year’s Campus Charitable Fund Drive. Faculty and staff throughout campus have raised almost $1.1M thus far with funds being distributed to umbrella agencies that serve citizens from Champaign County to communities around the world.

With the campaign ending on Nov. 18, I urge you to make a pledge either via payroll deduction, personal check or as a direct payment to one of the almost 700 agencies on this list. There are a variety of designations that deal with current critical challenges facing our world today, such as COVID-19 relief, environmental wellness and social justice. Whether you feel strongly about supporting the most vulnerable individuals in our own community, the animal kingdom or the betterment of the earth, there is bound to be a non-profit organization that fits your passion and would welcome your donation.

Thanks to the thousands of you who have generously made a contribution to the Campus Charitable Fund Drive. The University of Illinois giving community is proof that collectively, we can make an enormous positive impact here in CU and around the globe.

For more information, visit https://ccfd.illinois.edu/. If you have any questions whatsoever, please do not hesitate to contact your CCFD unit leader, or reach out to the team at ccfd@illinois.edu or 217-265-6398.

Sincerely,

Robert J. Jones
Chancellor
