Workplace Giving
Workplace giving is a way for employees to donate to charitable organizations of their choice, primarily through payroll pledges. Donations through payroll pledges enable Lake Washington Schools Foundation to spend less time fundraising and more time working to enrich the quality of our schools, engage the support of our community, and enhance opportunities for all students in the Lake Washington School District.
How to Give at Your Workplace:
Corporate Workplaces: If you work for one of many corporations that include Lake Washington Schools Foundation in your workplace giving campaign, find Lake Washington Schools Foundation on your payroll pledge form.
United Way Campaigns: If Lake Washington Schools Foundation is not listed by your employer in your workplace giving campaign, you can designate Lake Washington Schools Foundation in the "Specific Organization" or "donor option" section of your United Way pledge form. Ask your campaign coordinator how to do this if it is not clear.
Government Workplaces: If you work a government agency, such as the State of Washington, state universities, the federal government, City of Seattle, King County, as well as many other counties and cities, you can find Lake Washington Schools Foundation listed in the campaign catalog. Once you have found us, write our code number on your payroll pledge form. If your agency has no catalog, ask your campaign coordinator how you may designate your gift to Lake Washington Schools Foundation.
