Campaign chairs send message to employees Last year, 11 percent of employees of the MUSC Family contributed to the Yearly Employee Support (YES) Campaign, and it proved to be the most successful campaign to date for the Medical University. The YES Campaign remains the only internal, fundraising drive in which employees make donations to more than 350 funds throughout the Medical University. Your gift, when combined with the gifts of your fellow employees, makes a dramatic impact in the lives of so many here on this campus, in our community, throughout South Carolina and beyond. Here are some examples of where your gifts make a difference: scholarships; medical research programs; hospital support; memorial funds; equipment/facility upgrades; building renovations; community health programs; and patient education programs. The theme for the 2003 YES Campaign is “Support Your Home Team.” Baseball Hall of Fame player Branch Rickey once said, “Don’t worry about your individual numbers. Worry about the team. If the team is successful, each of you will be successful, too.” Let’s come together, and surpass last year’s record by making this campaign the most successful. This year our goal for the 2003 YES Campaign is $220,000.  Please give this campaign careful consideration and make a gift as large as you can reasonably afford. We are confident that, with a small gift from each of our employees, we can reach and perhaps exceed this goal. Thank you for your continued support of MUSC and its mission. As employees of this wonderful institution we can all take great pride in the services we provide to others.  “Support Your Home Team” through the 2003 YES Campaign.     Gail Stuart, Ph.D., R.N. 2003 Chair, Yearly Employee Support (YES) Campaign Dean, College of Nursing   Jerry Reves, M.D. 2003 Leadership Chair, Yearly Employee Support (YES) Campaign Dean, College of Medicine Win prizes through 2003 YES Campaign To win prizes during the 2003 YES Campaign  return your completed pledge form (http://www.2003yespledgeform.html) to the Health Sciences Foundation in an envelope or fax the form to 792-8934.  This year’s grand prize drawing will take place in the middle of June.  The prize package includes a one-night stay at The Mills House and dinner for two to Robert’s of Charleston.  Also, weekly prizes will be drawn for six weeks during the campaign.  These prizes include: tickets to the RiverDogs baseball games; tickets to the Battery soccer games; tickets to the Terrace Theatre on James Island; gift certificates to the Mustard Seed; tickets to the Comedy Zone; and Robert’s of Charleston cookbook and signature spice.
