Bear Hugs

Express your appreciation

For years, the Bear Hugs Employee Recognition Program has been UCSF's preferred reward and recognition program for good reason; a wide variety of gift certificates are available through the program:

• restaurants
• clothing
• movie tickets
• home furnishings
• campus services
• dining

Convenient department recharge

For the ultimate no-hassle way to shop, use your department recharge and we'll turn your order around within 3 days. The distribution and usage of the gift certificates purchased through recharge must be in compliance with both University of California policies BUS-79 Entertainment and BFB G-41 Employee Non Cash Awards. Eligibility for in-kind awards under $75 has been limited by UCOP to individuals earning an annualized salary of less than $100,000 per year. It is the responsibility of the recharging department to follow such policies.
