The Council of Administrators is distributing Colorado Combined Campaign (CCC) donation materials to the offices of all Metro State employees this week. Each employee will receive an enrollment form pre-printed with his or her name and a brochure listing all the approved Colorado Combined Campaign charities.
The CCC allows employees to donate money directly to an individual charity, to an umbrella federation serving a common mission, or to up to five individual charities. Employees may also choose to donate without specifying a recipient, in which case the money goes into a common pool distributed to all the CCC’s member agencies.
This year the CCC has established two ways for employees to donate: using pre-printed forms or online.
Employees using a pre-printed form will need to complete and sign the form, and remember to keep a copy for their tax records. The completed forms will need to be returned to Russell Reynolds, Campus Box 99, or in person to the Assessment and Testing Center in TIV 347.
The Council of Administrators is requesting that donations be made by Wednesday, Nov. 18.
