Dear Colleagues,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As we begin to prepare for Holiday celebrations, I wanted to take the time to express my gratitude to you\u2014the members of the Buffalo Center Chapter of UUP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I am grateful for our members who take collective action and stand united as the voice for the academic and professional workforce at the university. Your support allows the Buffalo Center Chapter to continue our work as a strong advocate for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I am grateful for those of you who step up and volunteer as Chapter leaders. Whether as a Chapter Officer, Board Member, Department Rep, and\/or Committee participant; you make a difference in the working lives of our members each and every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Most of all, I am thankful for your service as a SUNY employee. You answered a call to public service and make a tremendous difference in the lives of the students we provide education and support services to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Please keep in your thoughts and prayers our military men and women who are away from their families serving our nation, and our fellow UUP members who work in healthcare throughout New York state. Also remember those working in residential care facilities, corrections, 911 emergency services, and all other essential operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Last but not least, please keep a place in your heart for the less fortunate this Thanksgiving and throughout the Holiday Season. Make a random act of kindness a part of your everyday life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
We ARE stronger together. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I extend to you and your family a safe and warm Thanksgiving and upcoming Holiday Season. \u200b<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In Solidarity,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
