Give Through Work

Combined Federal Campaign

We are an approved charitable organization for all federal government workers. Simply designate Orphanos as your desired charity during the Combined Federal Campaign. CFC # 45397

United Way

Orphanos is also a United Way approved charity. We do not regularly receive United Way funds as part of their budget allocation process. However, individuals can designate a gift to Orphanos on their United Way pledge form. This is one way to give to an employers-approved activity and still give to a cause you personally believe in.

Here’s How the United Way Collection Works:

-You determine your gift level. Let’s say it’s $100/month ($1,200 per year).
-Your employer will deduct your contribution from your pay. Your employer sends them to United Way and United Way collects them and forwards them to Orphanos - minus about 17% for their overhead.
-So, in our example, Orphanos would receive $1,000 and the United Way would keep roughly $200.

As you can see, it is more efficient to give straight to Orphanos. But, this designated United Way pledge is another way to support Orphanos and keep your employer happy by supporting United Way as well.

Corporate Sponsorship

Orphanos has recently started a Corporate Sponsorship opportunity where Companies can allow employees to give to Orphanos through payroll deductions. If your company does not currently give to an outside organization or participate in the Combined Federal Campaign or United Way we would love to come meet with your company and explain how they can become a Corporate Sponsor. This requires very little on the Employer and depends more on the employees. Please contact Andrea Gehrett for more information.
