$11,113 to go!

It takes only a few pennies each hour of work for Minnesota’s state employees to make a big difference in the lives of thousand of individuals.

Support MSUM’s Combined Charities Campaign and help make 2009 a year to remember!

The State of Minnesota set out to raise $1 million through the State Employee’s Combined Charities Campaign this year, and to date 2,675 state employees have donated $875,000.00 this year.

If you have not yet pledged to this campaign, please consider doing so. No amount is too small. Even a pledge of $1.00 per paycheck can make a difference!

Collectively, state employees make a huge impact on non-profits and their missions throughout the state. This year we have witnessed time and again the tremendous response these organizations have made throughout the State of Minnesota when they were needed. This is our chance to thank them and give them the resources they need to continue their work.

Currently, MSUM’s Combined Charities Campaign total is $51,886.64; which is 82.3% of this year’s $63,000 goal. If MSUM employees (who donated last year but have not yet donated this year) would donate the same amount again this year – we could definitely meet and beat our goal!
