United for our communities: 2025 United Way campaign launches Oct. 6

Penn State Health and Penn State College of Medicine’s 2025 United Way Campaign kicks off Monday, Oct. 6, and runs through Friday, Nov. 14. This annual campaign is an opportunity for employees to support their local United Way organization and/or other 501c3 nonprofit organizations the provide critical support to our local communities.

This year’s fundraising goal is $325,000. You may designate your pledge to a specific nonprofit organization or to United Way’s general campaign.

How to give

The easiest way to give is through payroll deduction. If you already contribute through payroll and wish to continue, you do not need to complete a new pledge form—deductions and designations will remain in place unless changed.
