Offer Payroll Deductions at Your Company:
Lakes Area United Way provides local companies an opportunity for employees to have an impact on their communities. Through the ease of payroll deductions, employees can make incremental donations from each paycheck which allows them to give back to their community without needing to write a larger check at the end of the year. It's easy, for both employers and employees.
Here’s how your impact adds up:
$3 per pay period - Provides basic living needs to 15 individuals working toward self-sufficiency.
$5 per pay period - Provides 54 meals for community members who might otherwise go hungry.
$10 per pay period - Supports safety advocacy services and prevention training for families experiencing domestic abuse.
$20 per pay period - Helps 300 individuals access mental health education and services, reducing stigma and increasing awareness.
