Combined Charities Annual Campaign
The Combined Charities Campaign for State Employees runs through October. As you may have heard, procedures have changed a bit this year. Everyone will need to enter their own payroll deduction information on the Employee Self-Service website at www.state.mn.us/employees. User-friendly details for how to do this are on the back of the campaign brochure that you have received (or will soon) from one of our 55 campus volunteers and at www.charities.state.mn.us/how-to.
Or, just go to the Self-service website and click on “Other Payroll”. The other alternative is to write a one-time check. Your departmental volunteer has a form for this (or contact a campaign committee member). Don’t let a few extra steps keep you from joining other Dragons in showing our support of our communities!
