Our numbers are in! For the 2011 campaign, we have 2,320 employees donating a total of $842,639.13. Thank you to all who participated in this year’s campaign.
Although our campaign is over, the payroll deduction system for charitable contributions is always available. Take a few moments to complete your pledge online at www.charities.state.mn.us/how-to
There are no specific requirements to be a Coordinator; however, the following knowledge and skills are helpful for Coordinators to have: a general understanding of the Campaign, a general understanding of the charities involved in the Campaign, an understanding of their own agency’s structure and workplace culture, a general understanding of the pledging process, organization and planning skills, good communication skills and the ability to motivate and encourage others.
There is no requirement for how much or little time you need to spend on Campaign activities as a Coordinator. Your agency may have expectations for the amount of time you spend on Campaign activities so it is best to check with your agency to determine how much time you should allot for the Campaign.
You do not have to order any booklets. The booklet is available online in its entirety. If you don’t wish to order booklets, you can refer employees to the website for information in the booklet.
