Here are some facts about this year&#8217;s drive: <\/p>\n<p><b>When:<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Leadership Giving Week began yesterday and will run through Friday.\n<li>The campuswide campaign begins Sept. 18 and runs through Oct. 6.<\/ul>\n<p><b>Goal:<\/b><br \/>\nThis year, UNMC has an employee participation goal of 50 percent and a monetary goal of $160,000. For the fourth year, UNMC will be teaming with Nebraska Medicine, aiming for a combined goal of $350,000. <\/p>\n<p><b>How to give:<\/b><br \/>\nUNMC employees can pledge online through an efficient, secure system using your UNMC eServ password. <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>On Monday, Sept. 18, employees will receive an e-mail message in their UNMC e-mail accounts.\n<li>Paper pledge cards will be available to UNMC employees who do not have UNMC e-mail accounts.\n<li>Campaign pledges, which can be made through UNMC&#8217;s payroll deduction, are automatically withdrawn beginning in January.\n<li>A &#8220;no-pledge&#8221; option is available online for employees who choose not to donate. If you&#8217;re unable to contribute, you still are encouraged to access the eWay Web site and submit a &#8220;no donation&#8221; response. <b>A &#8220;no donation&#8221; response counts toward total employee participation.<\/b><\/ul>\n<p><b>Why give?<\/b><br \/>\nThe United Way supports a variety of human-service program providers across the Omaha\/Council Bluffs area. United Way-supported programs build lasting change, creating life-changing opportunities by meeting the basic needs of the area&#8217;s most vulnerable populations, supporting children during their academic years and helping to prepare young people for productive careers. The programs funded by the United Way impact our neighbors.<\/p>\n<p><b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=hvdwDBO9rJo&amp;feature=youtu.be\">Check out the 2017 United Way Campaign Video.<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Other giving options:<\/b><br \/>\nEmployees can give by credit card on the online giving site, as well as through payroll deduction, cash, check or direct bill.<\/p>\n<p><b>Contribution options:<\/b><br \/>\nEmployees can direct their campaign contributions of $50 or more to any of hundreds of health and human service nonprofit organizations across the Omaha\/Council Bluffs area. <\/p>\n<p><b>Incentives for 2017:<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>All those who pledge a minimum of $20 (only $1.67 per month) by 4 p.m. on Sept. 22 will be eligible to win a prize each week of the campaign. Drawings will be held every Friday. Prizes this year include gift cards and Husker football tickets.\n<li>The earlier you donate the better chance you have at winning.\n<li>Drawing winners will be notified via email.<\/ul>\n<a
