Support GSPH

If asked to describe yourself, would you use the word “philanthropist”? 

You may not think you’re wealthy enough. You may think you can’t give enough to make a difference in the school’s future. Think again.

Every time you give back to GSPH, the school that helped you begin your career, you are making a difference. Think of the excellent students who will choose to study here because of the opportunities you can help offer them. Think of the creative and talented faculty members a well-funded school can recruit.

Consider the impact of GSPH community outreach programs that even the smallest gift could help support.

You know what GSPH means to you—it’s the education that helped you get your foot in the door; it’s being part of a school that is consistently ranked as one of the best schools of public health in the country; it’s the place you came because you wanted to make a difference. It’s the school that positively impacts the health of the world in daily, tangible ways.

Many of you have contributed to GSPH over the past year and for that, we are truly grateful. The Honor Roll of Donors recognizes each of you who have made a gift to GSPH in fiscal year 2009 (July 1, 2008–June 30, 2009). You are supporting faculty, students, the school’s centers, programs, research, our local community, and communities around the world.

There are many ways to give back to GSPH. Smaller contributions and annual gifts all contribute to the financial health of the school. And you can guarantee that your yearly gifts support the school for many years to come. A bequest in your will, a beneficiary interest in a life insurance policy or retirement plan, or a remainder interest in a charitable trust all assure that your gifts are helping GSPH in perpetuity.

So go ahead. Consider how your contributions to GSPH—a school you know is making momentous strides in public health—affect the world. Think of the ways in which you can, and already do, support GSPH. And, be proud to call yourself a philanthropist.

 

If you’d like to make a gift to GSPH or would like additional information, please contact me at 412-624-5639 or eshelman@pitt.edu. I look forward to hearing from you.
