3 NEW JERSEY EMPLOYEES CHARITABLE CAMPAIGN Give TOP REASONS TO GIVE THROUGH THE NJECC
It’s Easy Each year, the NJECC will remind you to plan and budget for contributions to causes you care about.
It’s Convenient Search charities by keyword online and read about their programs. Pledge now and pay in 2018 – Payroll deduction makes it easier to afford a more generous gift, allowing you to make smaller payments from each paycheck.
Quality and Choice More than 1,100 charities serving a wide range of programs are eligible for your gift. Charities must apply annually to ensure they meet stringent requirements.
Efficiency The NJECC’s low administrative cost (10% of the prior year’s campaign) is a lower percentage than most charities spend on fundraising and administrative costs themselves. NO STATE MONIES are used to run this campaign. Charities that receive NJECC donations may devote their NJECC funds to areas where they are needed the most. That’s a value-add for the donor AND the charity. Designated charities receive one check quarterly for multiple donations.
