Payroll Deduction is vital to United Way’s Campaign. Not only, does it save time and money, it also helps foster a bond between employee and employer - who know that together they are working for the same goal “To increase the organized capacity of people to be independent and self-sufficient."

With Payroll Deduction, your gift can be divided into small payments through out the year, in any manner you like – be it weekly, monthly or anything in between. You can also choose how much you want to give from $2 to $25 or any other denomination you choose.

"Our annual United Way Campaign allows us to harness our collective desire to do some good in the community. The message that's reinforced every year is powerful: 'We can accomplish great things when we work together as a team'. It's a tremendous motivator and morale-booster for employees."

John W. R. Payne
Sr. Vice President & General Manager, Harrah’s Casino New Orleans

     
  “We have a lot of employees who want to do something for their community. An organized company campaign gives them the platform to do that. It brings employees together, gives them a chance to work on and demonstrate organizational and leadership skills, benefits the community and it brings positive attention to our company. It is definitely a positive effect on morale. Our campaign is not high pressure, but one of education so employees can make informed decisions. We have some of the same volunteers year after year. We run a company United Way Campaign because many of our employees want us to. My philosophy is to support community events and causes that our employees would be supporting anyway with financial resources.”
