Dear Colleague,

I invite you to join me in contributing to the new GUCares Employee Emergency Fund<https://benefits.georgetown.edu/gucares>.

As a senior leader, I believe that it is a unique privilege to be able to donate to a cause that has a direct impact on those people I work with everyday. In this community we hear stories all the time about people going out of their way to support someone in time of dire need - when a child dies, a home is lost or an unwelcome diagnosis is delivered. In these times, we rally around each other.

GUCares offers us an opportunity to enhance the ways in which we are able to support one another in these difficult moments.

I have committed my tax-deductible contribution<https://benefits.georgetown.edu/gucares> to this effort. I encourage you to consider doing the same. The money that we contribute will be matched by University partners such as health plans and retirement vendors such as Fidelity and CareFirst to name a few. In the fall, GUCares will begin accepting grant applications from those who are in need. Let's be ready to respond to their call for help!

Thank you so much for your consideration. The Georgetown University community is one of deep caring and commitment for one another. I'm so delighted to be a part of this effort and hope that you will be too.

Sincerely,

Charles DeSantis
Associate Vice President of Faculty and Staff Benefits, Payroll & Wellness
Chief Benefits Officer
