District preparing to kick off Annual United Way Employee Giving Campaign

Dallas ISD is preparing to kick off our Annual United Way Employee Giving Campaign, and we need your help!

This year we have been challenged by Superintendent Michael Hinojosa to raise $80,000 to support United Way of Metropolitan Dallas. The campaign will be held from November 1 through December 15, 2017. We would like to encourage each department/campus to have 100% participation. Show your support for the United Way Employee Giving Campaign by donning your favorite pair of jeans. Participation is encouraged with a minimum donation of $5.00 per Jean Day and $15.00 for Jean Week. There are three different ways employees can make a donation to the 2017-18 United Way Employee Giving Campaign Powered by Dallas ISD: Oracle, eWay, Check/Cash. Additional details to follow in upcoming weeks!

In addition, each department/campus will need to designate a staff member to serve as UWMD Campus Campaign Coordinator. This individual will be responsible for collecting cash/check donations, attending a campaign training/information session, and committing to hosting/creating a department event/challenge to increase employee participation. There will be four opportunities to attend the training, below you will find dates, times and locations for each of the sessions.
