The 2026 State Combined Campaign is officially underway and I’m excited to bring you the first weekly report of many! Each week, this update will provide important information on the statewide campaign’s standing, as well as resources you can use to assist in your efforts.
Resource of the Week: Campaign Email Toolkit
Keeping employees engaged throughout the campaign is one of the best ways to encourage participation, but we know it can be difficult to figure out what to say week after week.
That’s why this week’s featured resource is our Campaign Coordinator Email Toolkit!
The toolkit includes four ready-to-use emails that build on one another throughout the campaign. Coordinators can copy, customize, and send them directly to employees in their departments. The messages reinforce this year’s Giving Today, Changing Tomorrow theme while helping employees understand the campaign, see the impact of their participation, and remember to make their pledge.

Feel free to customize the messages to fit your department. Adding a personal note, sharing your department’s progress, or highlighting a participating charity can make them even more effective!
