Names of eligible contributors whose pledge cards are returned to the president's office, Mail Stop 5202, by 5 p.m. the Thursday before each drawing will be included.

Once a person wins a weekly prize, they will be ineligible for subsequent weekly drawings.

Grand-prize drawing

One grand-prize drawing will be held Friday, Nov. 15, in addition to the drawing for the regular weekly prizes.

All WMU faculty and staff members who contribute to the campaign whose pledge cards are received in the president's office by 5 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 14, will be entered into the grand-prize drawing of a $100 gift card to any Millennium restaurant or an oar signed by Head Football Coach P.J. Fleck. This includes all previous prizewinners.

The campus United Way campaign to date has collected pledges totaling nearly 67 percent of its $300,000 goal.
