Syracuse University United Way Giving Campaign

Syracuse University is a long-time supporter of the United Way of Central New York.  We hope you will please consider uniting with your colleagues and making a contribution to sustain the long-standing mission of the United Way. The United Way supports 72 specially funded programs and projects, by 33 nonprofit partners serving our community. Your support offers hope to those in our community that need it most.

 

This year’s campaign runs through December 15, 2023. During this time, we encourage each University employee to consider making a voluntary a one-time gift as your pledge. There is also an option to give through payroll deductions over the coming year.  For those who prefer, a paper pledge card may be obtained by contacting our campaign coordinator, Jake Losowski at jjlosows@syr.edu or 315.443.4137.

 

If you have a favorite nonprofit organization that is not part of the United Way’s Community Program Fund, please be sure that they follow this specific criteria in order for them to receive the funds from the United Way:

 

• Eligible organizations must be 501(c)3 health and human service agencies operating in New York State or other United Way chapters.
• For each designation outside of the standard United Way funded programs, there is a $100 or 15% administrative fee, whichever is less.
• The gift must be a minimum of $50 per agency, with a maximum of four designations.

Thank you in advance for your partnership! When we combine our resources and divide our shared responsibility, great things happen for our community. Visit MySlice today to participate in our 2023-2024 campaign with a pledge of any amount. No gift is too small and every dollar helps change lives!
