Develop a plan for success
Work with your United Way staff to assess the strengths of last year’s campaign and identify areas of improvement.
Involve your CEO
The success of your campaign will be significantly improved based on the commitment and visible support of your senior managers and chief executive officer.
Recruit and train your campaign team
Your campaign committee will help you manage your organization's campaign and communicate with employees about United Way.
Run a Tocqueville Society and Leadership Giving Campaign
Tocqueville gifts of $10,000 or more annually and Leadership Gifts of $1,000-$9,999 are an effective way for contributors to have a greater impact in our community and can be the key to increasing average gift and senior management support.
Promote and publicize
United Way can help you create an atmosphere of contagious enthusiasm as you inform employees how their contributions help change lives.
Make the ask
It is important to make the ask to allow every employee to make an educated, personal decision about giving to United Way.
Report your results
Employee follow-up and timely reporting of results is critical.
Say thank you!
Thanking everyone involved cannot be overemphasized.
Plan for next year's campaign
Getting an early start to next year's campaign allows you the opportunity to execute an even more successful campaign for years to come.
