It was a joy being with departments last week as they launched their internal campaign! Many are finding a new excitement with this year’s efforts, and we couldn’t be more grateful.
Remember to keep the campaign at the forefront of employee’s minds, even after you launch. Consistent reminders make a big difference in high engagement. Our 2025 campaign theme rings ever-true in that transforming communities through giving starts with an individual decision, resulting in collective success. Your leadership helps us get there!
Many coordinators ask about incentives to encourage giving and engagement. One great incentive that United Ways of Alabama offers is our discount card, which can be received for an annual gift of $36.00 or more. In partnership with local businesses, discount cards are offered by multiple local United Ways — the full list can be found here.
As you receive qualifying pledge cards, periodically send me an email detailing how many discount cards you need from each area.
Where Are We At?
As we await initial reports from several departments, steady progress continues! As of Week 4, $107,762.49 has been received from 745 contributors!
Please submit reports regularly (if not weekly) so that we can easily track the campaign’s progress.
As you facilitate the campaign in your department or office, please don’t hesitate to reach out if there are any questions I can answer or resources that can be offered.
This Week’s Goal-Getters!
We didn’t have any departments reach their goal this week, which is all the more reason to get your name up there! See you next week…
