Thousands of individuals invest in West Alabama each year by donating to United Way through workplace giving. This type of investment is probably the most popular approach because it allows employees to give back to the West Alabama community through payroll deductions in addition to other pledging methods.

How does it work?
First, find out if your organization runs a workplace campaign. Contact your organization’s Human Resources representative, Community Relations representative, or United Way Employee Campaign Coordinator to ask for a pledge form. Fill out the pledge form to indicate a payroll deduction pledge, a credit/debit card pledge, a pledge to be billed, or offer a one time cash/check donation. If your organization’s headquarters are not in West Alabama, contact your Community Relations representative to find out if a United Way campaign is already supported. You may receive support and some campaign supplies from your headquarters in addition to the materials your local United Way will supply.
