The Montana State Employee Charitable Giving Campaign (SECGC) has been a beacon of community support and generosity for over three decades. This campaign has facilitated a seamless way for state employees to contribute to nonprofit organizations about which they are passionate through the convenience of payroll deductions. This initiative has not only simplified the donation process but has also fostered a culture of giving within the state workforce, encouraging employees to actively support their communities.
With the impressive milestone of over $11 million raised, the SECGC highlights the collective power of small, regular contributions. Each donation made by state employees, no matter the size, accumulates to create substantial support for a wide range of nonprofit organizations. These nonprofits work tirelessly to address various needs within the state—from providing essential services to underserved populations to supporting cultural and environmental initiatives that enhance the quality of life for all Montanans.
Now more than ever, state employees can further strengthen our state by continuing this tradition of workplace giving. By contributing to the SECGC, employees ensure that their favorite nonprofits receive the funding they need to continue their vital work which fosters a sense of community and shared responsibility among employees.
State employees play a crucial role supporting the well-being of Montanans. The impact of their daily work is significant, and their charitable donations amplify this impact. According to research, every dollar donated generates a $3 economic impact locally. Over the past 33 years, the contributions of state employees have translated into an astonishing $33 million impact, benefiting communities across Montana.
The SECGC is a testament to the generosity and community spirit of Montana’s state employees. By continuing to participate in this campaign, employees can make a profound difference, supporting nonprofits that address critical needs and enhance the quality of life for all. Together, we can ensure that Montana remains a vibrant and supportive place for everyone.
