Personal Connections
As part of our effort to strengthen community at Lehigh, ERAC has put together this webpage listing a number of personal interest groups that ALL employees can become involved in. This fosters a supportive network for sharing information, services, and time among individuals and groups who have a common interest.Below is a list of interest groups and contact information. Feel free to get in touch with the appropriate person and enjoy!
If you have an interest group you would like to add to the list, kindly complete the online form.
Thank you and happy networking.

Adopt A Family
Adopt A Family was started by athletics where each athletic team "adopted" a family and bought them holiday gifts, but has expanded to include fraternities and sororities, as well as administrative offices. Families in need are identified through Donegan Elementary School and matched with a Lehigh office or organization that provides them with gifts for the holidays. On a designated day, all gifts are taken to Donegan Elementary to present the gifts, where the family members open one or two items and then share a meal in the school gymnasium. This amazing program connects Lehigh to the community and demonstrates the true meaning of the holiday season.
If departments are interested please contact David Joseph at dmj0@lehigh.edu by late July. Offices and departments have combined together in the past to make sure there are enough people chipping in to cover the family well.
