Giving through the SECC is easy …


The SECC is the charitable giving campaign for the state government and higher education workplace.

Giving through the SECC is one of the easiest things to do. Each year, more than 55,000 of your fellow state and higher education employees contribute through a payroll deduction or a cash/check gift. In 2009, through the generosity of state and higher education employees, more than $10.14 million was contributed to many charities and federations.

The best and easiest way to give is through Payroll Deduction. You can designate to charities of your choice through the SECC and have your gift deducted from your paycheck.  This spreads your giving over a year and increases the impact you can make to those causes you choose to support.

Cash and check giving is also accepted. You can still designate your gift to your favorite charity(ties).

On occasion, state and higher education employees can participate in locally-run SECC special events. Special events can be a great deal of fun for you and for your colleagues.  They usually involve food but can also involve anything from the boss kissing a pig to office carnivals. Proceeds from these special events are normally spread across charities already receiving funds.

FOLLOW THESE EASY STEPS TO GIVE TO A CHARITY OF YOUR CHOICE:

  1. Contact your organization's campaign coordinator in your office. Not sure who that is? Contact management to find out. If no coordinator has been assigned, contact your local campaign manager for assistance.

  2. Search through your local directory of charities to find a charity to which you would like to give.

  3. Fill out a pledge form and return the complete form to your campaign coordinator or to your local campaign manager.

  4. SMILE … you just helped communities locally, statewide, nationally or worldwide!

Thank you for your support of the SECC!
