<p class="Default"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">The 2013 UA Cares campaign has begun. This is a time when university employees have the opportunity to donate to their choice of funds here at the university and to non-profit initiatives throughout
the community. The campaign has successfully partnered with the UA Foundation and the United Way of Tucson and Southern Arizona over the past ten years. During that time, employees have made a real difference in the lives of others by supporting student scholarships,
groundbreaking medical research, critical community programs that provide food, healthcare and housing for our most vulnerable citizens, and much more.

<p class="Default"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">I want to emphasize that your donation does make a difference. A small contribution from your paycheck can quickly add up. Donating five dollars from every paycheck makes for a $130 donation
over the course of a year. We have a staff member who has donated through UA Cares over the last 10 years and has contributed over $12,000 to the college (an average of $46.15 a paycheck). Small contributions quickly add up to have a positive impact on the
college, the university, and the community. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="Default"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">If you would like to give to a program close to home, please consider a gift for a CALS scholarship, the Dean’s Fund for Excellence, or speak with your department head about making a gift to
your own department. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
