Create a legacy that goes beyond your role on campus...

Pitt-Greensburg faculty and staff understand first-hand the great need that Pitt-Greensburg students have for quality programs and experiences. That’s why our faculty and staff lead the charge in shaping Pitt-Greensburg’s future when supporting the Partners in Excellence Faculty and Staff Campaign each year.

The goal of the Partners in Excellence Faculty and Staff Campaign is to increase the number of gifts and pledges from faculty and staff that support scholarships, programs, and projects at Pitt-Greensburg. The primary objective is not to raise a specific amount of money, but to encourage ALL faculty and staff to contribute at levels with which they are comfortable. When faculty and staff show their support, it demonstrates to alumni and friends, that our internal constituents embrace our mission. This has a strong influence on prospective contributions from foundations, corporations, and individuals.

 

Pitt-Greensburg relies heavily upon philanthropic support. Your support allows Pitt-Greensburg to continue our tradition of providing exceptional faculty and staff, state-of-the-art facilities, and financial aid to deserving students, as well as maintaining a safe and beautiful campus. Ultimately, this works together to have a profoundly positive impact on current students, while attracting new students to Pitt-Greensburg. Whether you choose to support general student scholarships or a specific department’s program, every gift to Pitt-Greensburg makes a difference.

 

Quick facts about the annual Partners in Excellence Faculty and Staff Campaign:

  • The campaign starts at the beginning of the fiscal year (July 1) and concludes at the end of the fiscal year (June 30). An appeal for support includes a letter, pledge card, return envelope, and a brief overview of programs, projects, and scholarships that you can support, is mailed to your home twice annually, usually September and March.
  • You will receive promotional e-mails and other correspondence to encourage your participation.
  • Callers from the telefund call center in Oakland will follow up with faculty and staff who have yet to contribute.
  • A series of prize drawings recognizes those faculty and staff members who have made their pledge within the first few months of the campaign, usually at the beginning of the new academic year.
  • Your contribution to Pitt-Greensburg through the Partners in Excellence Faculty and Staff Campaign is 100% tax deductible.
  • Pledge payments are convenient and can be made in a number of ways, including payroll deduction, one time gift via cash, check, credit card, or a payment plan.
  • You will receive a thank-you for your contribution, plus an official receipt for your personal tax record.
