“At a time when Californians are met with difficult hardships, it
is essential to have the generous support from Our Promise. Each
donation contributes to the betterment of those in need, and I
commend each state employee who selflessly supports the many
charitable organizations. Our Promise will forever be a true
testament to the strength and compassion of the great state of
California.”
Gavin Newsom
Lt. Governor
Why continue to give when you’re retired?
“In my case, I was hooked on charitable giving – having done it for 35 years at ever increasing amounts. Plus – I had chaired the Department’s CSECC campaign from 1983 until I retired in 2003.
So, unlike most state employees, I knew about the PERS option as soon as it was created.
As far as “why should I give,?” I tell people that if just feels good in these hard times to be part of the solution. Let’s me sleep good at night.”
