Make your United Way pledge by November 14 and you could win two free airline tickets

UK’s United Way campaign has been extended and will run through November 14, even though the window to donate via payroll deduction will technically be open until December 20.

The campus-wide drawing for the tickets to anywhere in the US or Canada, thanks to UK Travel and Delta Airlines, will be on November 14. Anyone who has donated to the United Way by then will automatically be entered. The winner will be announced November 15.

Here’s what you need to know to donate and enter to win two free airline tickets:

1.      For Payroll Deductions, go to myUK > Employee Self Service > Benefits and Payment > United Way - Payroll Deduction

a.      Donations from previous years do not automatically renew. If you gave previously, you will have to reenroll for the 2017 calendar year.

b.      Enter your monthly contribution amount. If you are paid biweekly the total monthly contribution will be split in half and taken out of the first two paychecks of the month.

c.      Enter a designation to total 100% by picking one or more agencies of your choice in step 4 of UW payroll deduction process in myUK. If you do not have an agency preference, enter “100” in the “UW Big Bold Goal” category.

d.      Make sure to click the SAVE icon to save your pledge. The message “Data Saved Successfully” with the green check box should appear to ensure you’ve completed the donation process.

2.      For Cash/Check/Credit Card donations, print this pledge form and turn it into Abby Leonard, 213 Main Building.

3.      The winner of the airline tickets will be drawn November 14 and the winner will be contacted November 15.
