Reminder: Our Team Member Giving Campaign is under way

Foundation

Ballad Health’s 2022 Team Member Giving Campaign has begun! The campaign opened on Tuesday, Nov. 1, and lasts through Tuesday, Nov. 29. This Ballad Health Foundation campaign provides team members an opportunity to give to their choice of many important funds and programs that benefit our communities, patients, families and team members.

Tapping into the spirit of teamwork and giving for which Ballad Health is known, this year’s theme is “For one. For all.”

Each team member should receive a personalized email from Ballad Health Foundation that will let you make a donation. (Do not forward, though, as this link is personalized for you.)

IMPORTANT NOTE: The Nov. 1 email from Ballad Health Foundation might have been automatically routed into team members’ Junk Email boxes in Outlook. This issue has now been resolved and subsequent emails for the campaign should appear in your Inbox, but if you have not received your personalized giving link, please check your Junk Email to make sure it did not end up there.

In an effort to make things more convenient for our team members, team members have the option to make a sustainable gift that automatically renews each year. That way, team members can choose how much they want to give and which programs they want to receive their donation – but there’s no need to go through the same donation process each year, because it automatically rolls over to the next year.

Any team member who clicks on their personalized giving link will automatically be entered in a weekly drawing for gift cards. We have reached out to our Week 1 gift card winners: Lindsay Davis, Jeremy Carlson, Robin Wilson, Angela Vanover and Cheryl Moran.

Important change to this year’s campaign

  • Unlike last year, your gift will NOT automatically roll over. Instead, everyone must re-enroll a new gift amount or manually roll over your current giving amount.
  • Once you have completed this process, your gift will continue until you reach out to Foundation staff to increase, decrease or cancel your ongoing gift.

Example: On the first day of the Team Member Giving Campaign, you commit to giving $20 per paycheck. The first $20 will be taken out of the second paycheck in January of 2023. After that, $20 will then be taken out of each paycheck until you decide to alter your ongoing gift, and it will automatically renew each year – unless you decide to change it.

If you gave last year, your commitment will be completed on the first paycheck of January 2023 (Jan. 6) and your new, on-going commitment will commence on the second paycheck of the January 2023 (Jan. 20).

How to give

You will receive a personalized email from Ballad Health Foundation that will let you make a donation. (Do not forward, though, as this link is personalized for you.)

We’ve tried to make it as convenient as possible for team members to make a donation. You can give by credit card, check, cash or payroll deduction.

How does my donation help?

This campaign funds a range of programs and services, including the Niswonger Children’s Network, Patient Assistance, Team Member Emergency Fund, United Way Agencies, and more. Every year, the money our team members give makes a real difference in the lives of people in our community – and you can choose what you want your donation to support.
