Dear Colleagues,
Each year, University Health team members come together during Live Better to support University Health Foundation and United Way of San Antonio and Bexar County. At the heart of this employee giving campaign is a deep belief that philanthropy comes from within.
University Health is blessed with a talented team of professionals who bring their individual commitment and expertise to serve our community every day, but it is the power of collective efforts that truly drives change. Live Better is an opportunity for us to unite, celebrate our dedication to others and raise money to support projects and programs that directly impact our mission and support vital nonprofit organizations across our community.
As we kick off this year’s campaign today, and continue through September 23, I encourage all of you to participate in a way that is meaningful to you and inspire others to join in as well. Pledge funds, donate blood, volunteer time – every bit helps.
In addition, I’m excited to announce that Frost Bank has launched an incentive called “Boost Your Impact,” offering a $100 match for every new or increased gift of $100 or more to United Way. It’s a great way to double your dollars in support of our community.
Finally, I want to thank this year’s Live Better chairs – James Garcia, Dr. Monika Kapur and Nelson Tuazon – for their leadership and commitment to service. I’d also like to recognize the 175 employees volunteering their time as Live Better Ambassadors and/or hosting events to raise awareness about the campaign. Their dedication is critical to our success.
Thank you in advance for your support and generosity. Together we can achieve incredible things.
Edward Banos
