- What is the University Hospital Foundation?
The University Hospital Foundation is the official nonprofit organization that raises philanthropic support for University Hospital. Donations help provide critical resources beyond what operating budgets can cover, enhancing patient care, advancing programs, and investing in equipment and technology.
- What is payroll deduction?
Payroll deduction is an easy and convenient way to support University Hospital through automatic donations from each paycheck. You choose the amount that works best for you, and your gift is deducted before you receive your paycheck.
- How much can I give?
Any amount makes a difference. Whether you choose $2, $5, $10, or more per pay period, your collective support helps improve the lives of our patients and community.
- Where does my donation go?
Unless you designate your gift to a specific program or department, your donation will support the Foundation’s Area of Greatest Need. This allows the Foundation to respond quickly to the hospital’s most urgent priorities, including patient care, equipment, staff programs, and community health initiatives.
- Is my donation tax-deductible?
Yes. The University Hospital Foundation is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization. Your donation is tax-deductible to the extent permitted by law.
- Can I change or stop my payroll deduction?
Yes. You may increase, decrease, redirect, or cancel your payroll deduction at any time by contacting the University Hospital Foundation.
- Will I receive a receipt for my donation?
Your payroll deductions will appear on your pay stub. The Foundation can also provide documentation for your charitable contributions upon request.
- Why should I give as an employee?
As members of the University Hospital family, we see firsthand the impact our hospital has on patients every day. Employee giving demonstrates our shared commitment to strengthening the care we provide and investing in the future of our hospital.
