Give to United Way

You may pay in cash, check, money order, or give directly online with your debit/credit card via E-Pledge. You may make checks payable to Heart of Indiana United Way and return them to The Office of Community Engagement (Oakwood OW 122) along with your completed paper pledge form (PDF). 

A Pledge Form must be submitted alongside any cash, check, or money order donations. At minimum, your name and department are required to count your pledge for participation incentives.

It is preferred that you submit your donations to your Team Captain or directly to your Campaign Coordinator in Community Engagement, but if you are unable to do so for any reason, you may send it directly to Heart of Indiana United Way at PO Box 968, Muncie IN 47308.”

Heart of Indiana United Way has a new online platform that makes it simple and easy to make tax-smart gifts like stocks, QCDs, and gifts from donor-advised funds directly through their site at Heart of Indiana United Way.

Yes. All you have to do is enter the deduction per pay amount as equal to your pledge total when filling out E-Pledge or the paper pledge form. For example, one could fill their pledge out to read, “Please deduct $100 per pay, until a total pledge of $100 has been met."

Complete the Payroll Deduction section of the pledge form (PDF), make a copy for your records and return it to your Team Captain. Team Captains will have envelopes for you to use to keep your donation private. If you don't know your employee ID, you may use your social security number. All records are kept confidential. Since the United Way campaign officially ends each year in November, the amount pledged will start being taken out of the January pay period. The deductions will be taken until the pledged amount has been met.

Total payroll deductions will be reflected in each pay stub between January and December 2026.

For tax credit on your 2025 tax returns, please pay with cash or a personal check/money order made payable to Heart of Indiana United Way and submit it with your pledge form prior to the end of the calendar year.

The total deduction to date is available on your pay stub.

You may view your pledge from last year by doing one of the following:

• For donations placed online via E-Pledge: Your total pledge amount will be listed on the Pledge Confirmation email you received after submitting your donation through the E-Pledge system during the previous year’s campaign.
• For any other form of donation: reach out to Bianca Sulanke at besulanke@bsu.edu

No. The university is pleased to continue the tradition of offering employees the option to give to charitable organizations of their choice and acknowledges that giving is strictly on a voluntary basis.
