Welcome to the Campaign! As a Coordinator, you play a vital role in making this year’s Combined Charities Campaign a success. Even the smallest amount of time and effort can make a big difference in the lives of those that benefit from the many local, state, national and international charities that participate in the Combined Charities Campaign.

Although we prepare materials that are easy to use and understand, we recognize that there is no substitute for Coordinators. Without your valuable one-on-one contact, no campaign could succeed. On behalf of all the charities, we thank you for your efforts.

As a coordinator, the following tasks will be assigned to you:

• Provide information to employees in your department.  

  1. Distribute materials to every employee in your department/school.

  2. Introduce yourself as the Coordinator when you hand each employee the campaign booklet and pledge card.

  3. Encourage them to contact you if they have a question.

  4. Contact us if someone has a question you can’t answer.  We will do our best to get you the answer you need.

• Increase the Visibility of the Campaign in Your Area/Department. 

  1. Hang Campaign Posters around your department

  2. Invite a  speaker.  Even a 5-10 minute presentation at a  staff meeting, ‘rap session’ or other gathering of employees helps answer questions people and generates interest.

  3. Have a Charity Fair.  For a really dramatic impact, arrange a charity Fair in which participating charities can stop by, hand out materials and answer questions. To arrange a fair or speaker in your location, contact CCC office 312-379-0190. 

• Collect and Submit pledges

  1. Complete a Campaign Report Form listing participating employees.

  2. Make a copy of the Campaign Report for your records.

  3. Check that the Campaign Collection Envelope includes:

     • Campaign Report Form

     • Completed Pledge Forms

     • Checks/Cash Contributions.

  4. Submit to CCC Office.
