Give

You can give to the United Way through a payroll pledge or a one-time donation.

Payroll Pledge

Magnify your impact and change lives, again and again.

A recurring payroll pledge makes an incredible impact on our community. Select an amount that works for you and it will be automatically donated from your paycheck. Even a small amount made regularly has a huge impact on our local community.

During the annual fall campaign, you will receive personalized emails from pledge@unitedway.ubc.ca with your unique link to make a payroll pledge. If you don’t have the link or need another one please email unitedway.ok@ubc.ca.

To make a payroll pledge outside of the annual campaign please submit a payroll ticket through the UBC Self Service Portal.

You will be sent a summary of your donations for tax purposes annually.

Here are a few examples of how your payroll pledge can make a difference:

 

Textbook icon $5/pay* covers the cost of one textbook for a former youth in care attending post-secondary education in BC. Food basket icon $25/pay* provides grocery vouchers for fresh food and produce at local stores for four families in need.
Piled hands icon $10/pay* provides a welcoming space, support and connections for refugees and asylum seekers in their community. Person running through ribbon icon. $40/pay* provides one student with one year of work experience and leadership training through United Way’s Future Leaders program.
