“Now more than ever, our community needs United Way,” said Jim George, Penn State Health director of community relations. “Invest in its proven programs that improve lives and help individuals and families become self-sufficient.”
This year, instead of focusing on a dollar amount goal, Penn State Health and the College of Medicine will focus on increasing the percentage of employees who give to United Way. The easiest way to give is through a small payroll deduction. Employees can direct their pledges to a specific nonprofit organization or to United Way’s general campaign.
- Penn State Health employees will be able to access the United Way system and make a pledge or donation online beginning Oct. 12.
- College of Medicine employees and faculty will receive their pledge form in an email from Dr. Kevin Black, College of Medicine interim dean, and Steve Massini, Penn State Health CEO, on Oct. 12. After completing the form, they should save and email it to UnitedWayPayroll@psu.edu.

Participants who make a pledge/contribution of $182 per year will be eligible to win one of United Way of the Capital Region’s raffle prizes:
