United Way campaign update and prize winners announced

The 2020 United Way campaign has begun at University of the Pacific’s campuses in Sacramento, San Francisco and Stockton.

The campaign is part of our benefits open enrollment, which will run through November 24.

Pacific employees who donate to the drive are eligible for prize drawings. Twenty employees pledged during the first week of the campaign. The first round of winners are:

  • Laura Steed (Religious and Spiritual Life) and Eric Waldon (Conservatory of Music) each will receive a set of two Pacific women’s basketball season tickets.
  • Margaret Roberts and Peter Hilsenrath (both with the Eberhardt School of Business) each will receive a set of two Pacific men’s basketball season tickets.

If you have not pledged yet, there is still time left to make your gift and be eligible for weekly prizes through drawings. Those who give early in the drive will remain eligible for prizes each week, although donors may only win once. The upcoming drawing dates and prizes: 

November 11

  • Two sets of two Conservatory of Music season tickets

November 18

Employees have the option to make a one-time donation or designate a payroll deduction through the open enrollment process (Pacific login required). Information on how to donate to United Way also is included in the open enrollment packets mailed to faculty and staff home addresses.
