Combined Charities Campaign starts Oct. 7
2013 October 3
HISD’s annual Combined Charities Campaign kicks off of Mon., Oct. 7, so start thinking now about which non-profit organizations you might like to support this year.
The district is one of the largest employers in our region, and area nonprofit organizations depend on our employees’ continued generosity to assist them in maintaining critical services in our community, state, and nation.
Employees can elect to make a one-time donation or pledge to donate a certain amount per paycheck. The campaign ends on Oct. 25. For complete details, please visit the Combined Charities Campaign website.
