How Your Donation Helps

Payroll Deduction

Payroll deduction is an easy “time-released” formula. Most state employees choose payroll deduction as the preferred payment method. Making equal payments over a period of time makes charitable giving easier for you.

Give With Confidence

Be assured that all participating organizations have met the highest standards of both program and fiscal accountability. All organizations listed in this SECC Information & Code Directory have a proven, documented track record.
