Time is running out to contribute to a worthy cause at a difficult time

Less than two weeks remain to make a collective difference in our communities through the State Employee Charitable Campaign (SECC). The deadline to give is Oct. 31. To donate online, click here and follow the easy, step-by-step instructions.

None of us could do it alone; it takes all of us working together to help make Texas strong — by giving through the State Employee Charitable Campaign during the past 25 years, state and higher education employees have provided meals to hungry children, service dogs for our veterans, support for cancer survivors and more.

This year, HSC employees can contribute online to one or more of the 1,300+ local and statewide charities that are working to ensure that all Texas neighborhoods and communities thrive.

Last year, 32,000 employees across Texas contributed through the SECC, accounting for $7.1 million contributed to food banks, homeless or domestic violence shelters, job training programs targeting veterans and other community programs. These charitable contributions translated directly to increased community services to keep Texans healthy, safe and strong!
