Can a state employee give to a charity not listed in the Partners in Giving Resource Guide?
No. Writing in a charity that is not listed will be classified as an undesignated contribution. Charities must apply for inclusion in the campaign and certify compliance with eligibility criteria outlined in Title I, Chapter 35, North Carolina Administrative Code. How will a state employee know their contribution goes where they designate? Each state employee can indicate on their pledge form that they wish to receive an acknowledgment from the charitable organization(s). All you have to do is check the box and provide a home address to be shared with the organization for acknowledgment purposes. The charities are supplied with labels to send out their acknowledgement letters to all who requested this service. Why should I give through the SECC instead of directly to a charity? The State Employees Combined Campaign actually reduces a charity’s overhead costs! By relying upon state employees’ contributions through the SECC, charities can avoid excessive costs for marketing and promoting
