Charitable giving

2/18/2011: Report from the UO component of the state employee Charitable Fund Drive:

The 2010 CFD received 810 pledges in the amount of $251, 083. This is an increase of 30% in pledges and 3% in total dollars pledged compared to 2009. Although the average pledge decreased in 2010, more people participated in the CFD than ever before.

Of the OUS-wide fund drive, the UO accounted for 66% of all pledges and 58% of the total dollars raised. Perhaps even more impressive, the UO campus accounted for about 25% of the total dollars pledged by all state employees.
