Description
Our organization is a trailblazer in the North Central Florida region. We have a responsibility to our neighbors and those who are struggling, and we partner with other local organizations that support our goal of serving residents and improving community health and quality of life. One such organization is United Way. This time each year, we ask our employees to UNITE with us to support the UF Health Shands UNITE Campaign to benefit United Way of North Central Florida. UW is relied on to help fund critical community-based programs that assist families and individuals to become financially stable, encourage education and learning and promote health and wellness. This years campaign runs Oct. 22 through Nov. 16, and were asking you to consider making a one-time pledge or, better yet, a recurring pledge through payroll deduction. Every $1 donated through the UW Community Investment Fund has a compounded impact: Each dollar donated to the Early Learning Coalitions School Readiness Services program brings an additional $16 into the community through matching grants. Each dollar donated to the Peaceful Paths Financial Literacy & Economic Empowerment program brings an additional $18 into the community through matching grants. Each dollar donated to the Catholic Charities Weekend Hunger Backpack program brings an additional $4 into the community through matching grants. Please visit portal.unitedwayncfl.org/shands to access our UW site, learn more and make a donation. To log into the website, please use your primary work email address and your six-digit UF Health Shands employee ID number. A Team Captain will connect with your department and can provide paper pledge forms if preferred. Your Team Captain can also let you know how UF Health Shands will match contributions over a certain amount, or you can visit the portal site above for more information.
