Roper St. Francis Teammate Giving

We are excited to announce that this year is the 6th anniversary of the Roper St. Francis Foundation Teammate Giving Campaign! The campaign kicks off on August 4, and will be led internally by our Foundation Team and give you a convenient way once a year to donate and support Roper St. Francis Healthcare.

As a teammate of a non-profit healthcare system, you have a unique opportunity to enrich the wellness of your community beyond the excellent care and service you provide. From payroll deduction to a one-time gift, there are many ways to give. No matter the size or designation, all donations will go to support Roper St. Francis Healthcare. We hope that the RSFH Gives! Campaign will continue to be an opportunity to celebrate our giving spirit as an organization.

1. Can I give to Roper St. Francis Healthcare and Trident United Way at the same time?
   Yes. Just check the boxes of which organization you would like to support. If you choose payroll deduction, you must a give a minimum of $5 per pay period to Roper St. Francis Healthcare.


2. Can I support the Roper St. Francis Foundation through the Trident United Way?
   In the past, this option was available through the Trident United Way Campaign. Now that we have combined the campaigns, you can support the Roper St. Francis Foundation directly and no administrative fee will be deducted from your gift.


3. How do I donate to the RSFH Gives! Campaign?
   You have many options for participating in the RSFH Gives! Campaign.
   
   

   To make a gift online, select one of the following options:

   • Power of One: The Power of One program is a new, additional way of giving this year that allows RSFH teammates to give an hour of their pay, from each pay period.
     Just one hour of pay can: change the life of a teammate needing assistance, help a patient with a gas card to get to vital follow-up appointment, help with clothing and food for someone experiencing homelessness. 
   • Enrollment in bi-weekly or one-time payroll deductions are available from August 1 to August 30. Go to CareLine home page and select the RSFH Gives! donation form.
   • Gifts may be made by credit card, one-time or recurring monthly on our website.
     
     

   To make a gift by mail, send your donation form, along with a check or credit card information (for security reasons, please don’t send cash) or visit our office:

   Roper St. Francis Foundation
   100 Calhoun Street, Suite 210
   Charleston, SC 29401

   Make a gift over the phone by calling our office at (843)724-2640.



4. Am I eligible to donate PTO?
   No, after careful review and consideration, PTO donations will no longer be an option for contributions to the Gives! Campaign. Teammates will still be able to contribute to the campaign using the other giving options listed above.


5. I can't make a big gift right now. Can I still contribute?
   Absolutely! Your participation, rather than amount donated is what is most important to our campaign. Gifts of any size demonstrate your commitment to our mission and are appreciated. Also, you can log on and select to be a supporter of our campaign without making any pledge commitments.


6. Can I give directly to a teammate in need?
   The RSFH Gives! Campaign adds resources to the Teammate Emergency Fund, which is managed by the Mission Department. To ensure the fund is used for our teammates in critical need, donations may not be designated to a specific co-worker.


7. Can I designate my gift to support more than two designations for Roper St. Francis Healthcare?
   No. You may select a maximum of two projects. Should you decide to select two funds, your gift total will be split evenly between each one. The Foundation recommends a minimum total of $50 for split gifts.


8. How will I be recognized for my contribution?
   All donors to the RSFH Gives! Campaign will be recognized in a special donor roster following the campaign. All donors who make a gift of $50 or more will receive a RSFH Gives! t-shirt or hat  


9. How will I receive my campaign swag item?
   At the end of the campaign, teammates who pledge $50 or more will be able to select a swag item (t-shirt or hat) through a link that will be sent to their RSFH email. This link will direct teammates to an online store. Swag items will only be available during the campaign August 4 - August 22.All items will be delivered to all employees who selected an item after the campaign closes to their preferred address. A pledge of just $2 per pay period for 26 pay periods will qualify you for a t-shirt or hat.

    



10. Is there a continuous option for giving?
    With future changes coming to our giving platform, we will be discontinuing the continuous giving option. Similar to open enrollment for our benefits, we ask that you now go in each year to confirm and update your pledge. This will give you an opportunity to make changes to your pledge without having to contact the Foundation office.
