Frequently Asked Questions

Why give?

Because your contribution will directly benefit our local communities. Giving through the NJSECC saves you time and is extremely cost efficient - 90% of every dollar contributed provides direct programs and services. Only 10% of the total amount raised is used for administrative costs.

The Employees Charitable Campaign is an easy way to express your caring!

What is the easiest way to give?

Payroll deduction is the easiest and most efficient way to give to NJSECC. Just a small contribution out of each paycheck can mean a lot to a family needing counseling because of job loss; a young child who needs medical care for a serious illness; or to help improve and protect the environment. What would your gift mean to someone?

If my circumstances change, can I change my pledge?

Absolutely. Simply notify the payroll office and the change will be made.

How is my gift distributed?

That is up to you. When you give to the NJSECC, you have the choice of designating all or part of your gift to a particular charity or federation listed in your codebook.

What if my favorite charity isn't registered?

Charities participating in this campaign must register with the Office of Charities Registration for the State of New Jersey and apply to the NJSECC each year. If your favorite charity does not appear in this year’s codebook, please consider a gift to one of the many other charities who would benefit from your generous support.
