For additional security purposes, a few changes have been made since last year’s campaign.

United Way of the Midlands: 

  • Click on this link. (The link goes to the UNMC eServ page.)  
  • Employees can sign in with their UNMC username and password.  
  • Once logged in, click the “red” link to donate to the United Way of the Midlands. 
  • Login in with the username and password emailed from “epledge@uwmidlands.org”
  • Donate.
  • A “no pledge” option is available for employees who choose not to donate. Employees who are unable to contribute are encouraged to access the ePledge website and submit a “no donation” response. A “no donation” response counts toward total employee participation. After an employee has submitted a donation or no donation response, United Way will no longer send additional giving emails this month.

Give Nebraska:

  • Employees can sign in with their UNMC username and password.

  • Register and donate.  

Employees can give by credit card on the online giving site, as well as through payroll deduction, cash or check. Campaign pledges, which can be made through UNMC’s payroll deduction, are automatically withdrawn from the last check in December 2022 for biweekly paid employees and January 2023 for employees paid monthly.
