1 Pledge Cards and Envelopes
Campaign Managers’ Toolbox 2012

2 The Pledge Card Most companies use the standard United Way pledge card. If your organization has requested it, the pledge cards can be preprinted with donor information. Pre-printed pledge cards require a two week turnaround. We require a spreadsheet with: Prefix First name, last name and middle initial Unique identifier In order to minimize duplicates accounts in our database and errors, the more information (address, ) the more we have to match the donor if they already exist in our database. Dorene Nowatzke 123 Main Street Anywhere, Ohio 12345 12345 Most of your campaigns will use the standard United Way pledge card. April 25, 2017 2

Three ways to designate a gift: A - Undirected gift to United Way B - Focus Area C - United Way program, affinity group, or local 501(c)3 health and human service April 25, 2017 5

6 Community Investment, cont’d.
Other designations: United Way programs and services are now listed online. They should be written on the front of the pledge card “write in” using the appropriate space. United Way has an open designation policy. We accept any designation to a local 501(c)3 health and human service agency. If this option is chosen, we request a city and state to help identify the organization. April 25, 2017 6
