Make a donation
The easiest way to make a donation is through the online ePledge system. Employees also have the option of completing a WVU Medicine United Way pledge card; it can be sent to Becky Wright through campus mail.
Remember: All donations stay local, in Monongalia and Preston counties.
Note: WVU Medicine employees who do not live in Monongalia or Preston counties can designate their donation to their local United Way when they visit the online ePledge system.
Take part in Denim Days
Another way to support the campaign is to give $5 to wear blue jeans on a Friday (starting Friday, Nov. 4, and continuing through Dec. 23).
Learn more about Denim Days at WVU Hospitals.
While it's not possible for all employees to participate due to uniform polices, the initiative is an option for those who can. Be sure to follow departmental guidelines and the Dress and Appearance Policy V.250S.
