Consider Giving To Epsilon Sigma Phi for the All University Campaign

Submitted by Chuck Otte, ESP Endowment Chair, 2014-15

This is the time of year that, as KSRE employees, we are asked to consider donating to the All University Campaign. Were you aware that you can set up payroll deduction and contribute to the Epsilon Sigma Phi (ESP) Endowment Fund AND have it count as part of the All University Campaign? I’ve been doing payroll deduction for ESP for more years than I can remember and it’s amazing how five or ten dollars per paycheck is never missed and over the years really starts to add up.

This past year the ESP Endowment Fund Trustees awarded over $13,000 in Program Innovation Grants and Professional Improvement Travel Grants. Those are grants that any ESP member can apply for. As the endowment fund grows, so do the available resources to award.

While you can sign up any time for payroll deduction, if you sign up by November 13, it will count towards KSRE’s participation results in the All University Campaign. You can make a one time or annual gift, or do as I have and set up payroll deduction. The Epsilon Sigma Phi Endowment Fund is fund number D74110. All-University Campaign Gift Forms can be found on line, or contact me and I’ll provide you one with the fund name and number already filled in. Please consider donating to the Endowment Fund so we can continue to fund professional improvement and innovative programs!
