Vacation Donation for Mary Brooks

By Amanda Kenowski

Mary Brooks is a CPT 4 with the Department of Corrections. She has been a state employee since July of 2017.

In October of 2023, Mary's husband Dan was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. As a result of this life-threatening illness, Mary's husband is currently undergoing treatment, and Mary has exhausted all sick and vacation leave accruals caring for him.

Mary has been approved for the Vacation Donation program and would greatly appreciate any donations that she would receive. Any state employee who accrues vacation may donate up to 40 hours per fiscal year, which will allow Mary to maintain her salary and health benefits. If you wish to donate vacation leave for Mary:

• Log in to Self Service Portal using your employee ID and password
• Select the Benefits tile > My Leave tile. From the menu on the left-hand side, select the arrow to access the Leave Donation
• Select the magnifying glass next to “Reserve Bank" and choose (recipient)'s name.
• Enter the number of hours you wish to donate.
• Select “Save"
• Refer to the Leave Donation Instructions as needed.
• Donation forms are also available from your Human Resources Office.

Thank you so much for your support and assistance.
