Message from the Chancellor
Dear Colleagues,
The 2013 Campus Charitable Fund Drive (CCFD) will begin September 16
and run eight weeks until November 8. This critical campaign benefits the
surrounding community in which we work and live in immeasurable ways. I
hope that all of you will participate at whatever level you can.
The nonprofit leaders listed in this brochure are ambassadors for charitable
support. From United Way to Community Health Shares of Illinois to the
American Cancer Society to the United Negro Fund, the amazing and hardworking people that compose these organizations make sure that your money
helps those who need it most.
This year is the second that I’ve been involved with the CCFD. And, like many
other experiences I’ve had at Illinois, I was amazed by the dedication and
support I saw in action last year. I am urging all of you to continue your level of
giving into the next year and, if possible, to increase your generosity. Together
we can improve the quality of life for our neighbors.
Even in these challenging fiscal times, this campus has donated more than $4
million over the past three years. I am not surprised. Illinois exemplifies a spirit
of caring and community engagement like no other I have seen. With the help
of our generous present and retired faculty, I am confident that we will meet
this year’s goal of $1.4 million.
Your giving helps build a stronger community,
Phyllis M. Wise
Chancellor, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign

tradition of caring and we anticipate that together we will achieve this
ambitious goal. But we will need the participation of every University

donors may wish to give at one of the designated levels below.
• Dollar-a-Day Giver: $365 per year or approximately $30 per month
• Pacesetter: $500 per year or approximately $42 per month
• Leader: $1,000 or approximately $83 per month
• Founder: $1,867 or approximately $155 per month. This amount
honors the founding year of the University of Illinois.

Agency: American Cancer Society
Illinois Division, Inc.
When you support the American Cancer Society, you
are joining a worldwide movement to help people stay
well, help people get well, find cures, and fight back
against cancer. Celebrating our 100th birthday this year,
the American Cancer Society is a global grassroots
force with more than 130,000 volunteers in Illinois and
millions elsewhere. We fight for every birthday threatened
by every cancer in every community. Revenue raised
in Illinois comes back to Illinois to help fund research,
cancer prevention programs, and patient services in
Illinois. Your support can help us make this cancer’s last
century.
Thanks to donors like you, the American Cancer Society
has achieved some terrific milestones in Illinois and
across the country, including:
•
We have helped save more than 13 million lives
which would have been lost to cancer without
our groundbreaking research, education, and
supportive services.
•
In just ten years, the Society’s Illinois Division has
created a statewide support network serving over
33,000 newly diagnosed cancer patients and
families yearly, all provided free of charge. We now
serve over half of all Illinois residents diagnosed
annually with cancer.
•
•
The Illinois Division has graduated 238
students from our Summer High School
Research Program. This unique program
helps fill the pipeline of cancer researchers
by matching science-minded high school
students with mentors who are successful,
leading investigators.
www.cancer.org
(800) ACS-2345 | (24.5%)
The Society is the largest private funder of cancer
research, and 46 of our previously-funded
researchers have gone on to earn Nobel Prizes - a
number unmatched by any other organization.

Part of an international program, Special Olympics

and a variety of skill-building opportunities for children
and adults with intellectual disabilities. Athletes from
every part of the state train for 8 weeks or more in 19
Olympic-type sports: alpine skiing, aquatics, athletics
(track & field), basketball, bocce, bowling, cross-country
skiing, equestrian, figure skating, floor hockey, golf,
gymnastics, powerlifting, snowshoeing, soccer, softball,
speed skating, tennis and volleyball. They are then
eligible to participate at one or more of the 175 separate
competitions held each year at the area local, district,
regional and state levels, with athletes competing in
divisions based on age, gender and ability level.
The benefits of Special Olympics Illinois extend beyond
the field of competition. Through Special Olympics,
athletes develop a sense of pride and hope. They
enjoy greater confidence and self-esteem. And their
participation increases society’s overall awareness of
what these courageous athletes can achieve when given
the opportunity.
Special Olympics Illinois relies solely on the contributions
of corporations, individuals and civic organizations to
make all of this possible. The organization is not funded by
the Kennedy Foundation and is not a United Way agency.
Nor does Special Olympics Illinois charge athletes or
families to participate in the program.
Your contributions support the nearly 22,000 Special
Olympics athletes, and additional 13,000+ Young Athletes

Agency: UNCF-The United Negro College Fund
America needs more college graduates. President
Barack Obama has committed the country to regaining
world leadership in the percentage of people with a
college education.
Because America needs the teachers, scientists, public
servants and citizens they will become, we need to
make sure that African Americans and other minorities
- who will be a majority of the population by 2050 - get
the help they need to attend college and graduate.
Furthermore, we need to ensure that our students get
the education they need before college to prepare
them for success in college.
That means America needs UNCF.
UNCF knows how to get students into college, succeed
there, and move on to careers of success and service.
We have been doing it for 69 years. We give college
scholarships to almost 9,000 students at more than
900 colleges each year. We provide financial and
capacity-building support to the 38 historically black
colleges and universities that are members of UNCF
and their 55,000 students.
That record is why more than 170,000 individuals,
corporations and foundations invest in UNCF each
year. Because America needs college graduates.
Because it's the right thing to do. And because, "A
mind is a terrible thing to waste."®

How a charity can join CCFD
CCFD is part of the State and University Employees Combined Appeal (SECA). Under the Illinois Voluntary Deductions Act, the Illinois
Comptroller is vested with the duty to qualify petitioning organizations under SECA. A petitioning charity can become qualified under SECA in
one of two ways:
#1 As a stand-alone agency: In this scenario, the charity will go through the SECA qualification process pursuant to 5 ILCS 340 et al. This
process entails obtaining 500 designations from state employees or annuitants within one year. To begin, review the Voluntary Payroll
Deductions Act then contact Robert Osgood (217-558-5159), Sara Wooley (217-558-3721), or write to: State of Illinois Comptroller Judy Baar
Topinka, Attn: Legal Dept., 325 West Adams Street, Springfield, IL 62704.
#2 As a qualified charity under an agency: A charity may contact any CCFD agency and request an application to be accepted within that
agency. Each agency has its own criteria, rules, regulations, and fees. Agency contact information is listed in the CCFD Agency Brochure and at
www.ccfd.illinois.edu.
