If you have contributed to the FSECC or perhaps even helped with the campaign in the past, you are probably familiar with the options available to contributors:

Payroll Deduction

All employees, including OPS employees, have the option of having their contribution deducted from their paycheck over the next calendar year. This is the customary option, intended to help employees manage gift giving within their budget. Also, we find that people are able to give significantly more through payroll deductions, instead of a one-time deduction.

Cash or Checks

Employees who prefer not to authorize payroll deductions have the option of giving by cash or check. However, special care should be given to ensure these types of contributions are promptly transferred to the local fiscal agent for handling.

All three of the above methods are provided for on the pledge form. All checks should be made out to the "FSECC".

Designation Options

The donor has the option of designating his/her contribution to any of the charitable organizations listed in their local FSECC brochure. Designations will be directed to those charities, less the proportionate cost of running the campaign. Designation is encouraged, since it gives  employees a more direct say in how their contributions are used. However, designations are not required and the matter is left entirely to the individual contributor's choice.

As an alternative to designating specific charities, employees may designate one specific Florida county (see list of county code numbers on page 4). However, if a county code is entered on the pledge form, the  employee's entire contribution will be directed to the local fiscal agent that serves that county and will be treated as undesignated funds contributed to the FSECC. This means that such contributions will be distributed to eligible participating charities withing the fiscal agent area in which the specified county is located.

Undesignated Contributions

All contributions that are not earmarked for a particular charity participating in the campaign will be "undesignated funds" that will be distributed to eligible participating charities by the Statewide Steering Committee or by the local steering committees in accordance with FSECC statutes and rules.
