Give to United Way of Cass-Clay and other agencies through Combined Charities

Log in to the Self-service portal, select “My Pay,” select “Charitable Deductions” 

MSUM employees can donate to the United Way of Cass-Clay or another federation of their choice through a recurring payroll deduction in Self Service as part of October’s Combined Charities statewide campaign.

MSUM’s goal is 100% employee participation. Every dollar counts, even $1 a week. Your donation supports vital health, education, environmental, arts, and social service programs throughout the state.

To set up new or edit existing deductions:

  • Go to the self-service portal (state.mn.us/employee) and log in
  • Select “My Pay”
  • Select “Charitable Deductions.” From this page, you can review, add, or update voluntary deduction information.
  • On “Type of Deduction” you can search for your agency of choice


Payroll deductions are a convenient way to directly donate to charitable federations, affiliated charities and 501(c) (3) charities of your choice and support causes you care about. Even if you made a deduction last year, these deductions are only valid for a single calendar year. Any payroll deduction will begin in January and run through December.

You can learn more about these federations at Lunch and Learn events where representatives will share how these organizations use donations from the Combined Charities Campaign.
