Dear Colleagues:
The University’s 2025 United Way Campaign is in the final weeks. If you have yet to make a pledge, I ask that you please consider making a donation. Our United Way works to create communities where all individuals can meet their most basic needs and feel empowered to create a better future. If everyone supported this community wide fundraising effort, what a change we could make collectively!
As our department’s United Way Campaign Coordinator, I ask that you visit the University’s campaign website: www.rochester.edu/unitedway for more information about the campaign, and to make a pledge. Pledge online via the ePledge link, or download a paper pledge form. Payroll deduction is a great option (deductions start in July 2025) but one-time gifts are helpful too. Gifts of all sizes make a difference and YOU are in charge of your donation.
Continuous pledge is a great option. Your payroll pledge will roll from year to year but can be modified at any time. Questions? Please contact the University’s United Way Office at uwco@hr.rochester.edu.
Thank you for your consideration and generosity!
Signed, Coordinator Name Here
PS: If you have already made your pledge, thank you for your support! Continuous Pledge Payroll Donors may view and, if desired, modify their current pledge on ePledge until May 1st 2025. If you decide to change your pledge after May 1st, please send an email to the United Way Office at uwco@hr.rochester.edu and they will be happy to assist you.
