From the SEFA United Way Campaign Chair
Wendy A. Paterson, Dean of the School of Education

This is Thanksgiving week. We are all ready to embrace our families near and far in gratitude for the bountiful lives our careers at Buffalo State College have allowed us. As we are encouraged by the media to get our holiday shopping done sooner rather than later, we are rushing to order and ship to family all around the globe. I’m sure your mailboxes are brimming with urgent appeals for charitable giving. (I know mine are.) A SEFA United Way contribution covers it all. Your gift expresses gratitude for all good gifts you have enjoyed so that you can support a present and future for all families. Your gift can honor your own family, as does my gift to the Boy Scouts of America for my father, a lifetime Scout leader. Your gift allows the work of the hands of others to do what your hands cannot do alone. We have extended our giving deadline to December 14, 2021, but in your frenzied shopping this week and in the coming holiday, please check “Give to United Way” off your list first!
