About the Campaign

The Minnesota State Employees’ Combined Charities Campaign is a unique opportunity for Minnesota state employees to donate to the charity(ies) of their choice through the convenience of payroll deduction.  The Combined Charities Campaign is planned and run each year by state employees.

 
How You Can Help

Every donation counts.  Your contribution can make a big difference.  

Through the payroll deduction process, state employees can contribute to one or more of the charitable federations who have applied, been approved, and are registered by the State of Minnesota to participate in this campaign (see Charitable Federations).  To qualify, federations must meet the requirements found in MN Statute 43A.50.  

Employees can further designate that their gift go to a specific charity of their choice.  
This can be to:

  • Any of the more than 4000 Minnesota-based charities that are affiliated with the registered charitable federations (see Affiliated Charities).
  • Any registered nonprofit charitable organization, IRS code 501(c)(3).

The purpose of this website is to provide every employee with comprehensive campaign information, including how to pledge.  Menu options along the right side of the page will help guide you to the information you need.

All pledges and one-time gifts are tax deductible.

 
Together, we can accomplish a lot

Last year, thousands of Minnesota State employees contributed close to one million dollars to Minnesota based charities. Because of your generosity Minnesota is a better place to live.

This year's goal is to continue our efforts to raise over $1,000,000. If you take the time to ask questions of your campaign coordinator, browse our website, and read the Federation’s brochure, we are sure you will be inspired to make a donation.

State employees are known for their generosity. Our communities depend on people like you. Please join us by working and investing in a better Minnesota. Donate today! For more information, talk to your agency or campus campaign coordinator.
