Make a difference through the State Employee Charitable Campaign

To the UT Southwestern Community:

Our commitment to serving others spans every corner of our institution, from patient care and research to education and administrative support. Through the State Employee Charitable Campaign (SECC), each of us can give to the mission that inspires us and makes a meaningful difference in our communities and beyond.

We are delighted to share that participation in the SECC among UTSW employees increased by 6.5% last year, a concrete expression of one of our core values – compassion.

What makes SECC unique is that you choose where your donation goes. Whether you’re passionate about medical research, animal welfare, education, or families in need, your gift directly benefits the causes that matter most to you.

Donate for a chance to win

This year, your generosity could come with a little extra reward. Employees who make a contribution could receive one of 50 donated prizes, including signed Dallas Mavericks apparel, tickets to the Perot Museum of Nature and Science, the Dallas Arboretum, Children’s Aquarium Dallas, top DFW art museums, the State Fair of Texas, sporting events, and more.

Be sure to watch for SECC events throughout the campaign to learn about participating charities, pick up some campaign swag, enjoy fresh-baked cookies, and connect with special guests.

Make an impact

Through Oct. 31, UT Southwestern is working toward a goal of $300,000 for charitable organizations. Every contribution counts, and you can make a one-time gift or choose a recurring payroll deduction that provides year-round support.

Giving is easy

Join your colleagues in supporting the organizations you care about. Together, our individual gifts can help us reach our $300,000 goal and create an extraordinary impact.
