Immediately following the United Way of Lackawanna and Wayne Counties' Annual Awards Breakfast and Celebration on April 29, 2015, three of our award winning companies shared tips and best practices for successful employee campaigns. These slides were shared by P&G Paper Products Company-Mehoopany Plant.

1. • P&G Mehoopany United Way Campaign
Tips
– P&G perspective on United Way –
• 2100 employees
• 24x7 operation
– Plant has been in Wyoming County 49 years
– Started United Way in Wyoming County
– Today supports Wyoming, Bradford,
Susquehanna, Lackawanna, Wyoming Valley
United Way

2. Overall learnings at P&G:
1. Get, analyze, & use your key campaign metrics/data
2. Make it personal – Day of Caring, Video, Kickoff
with Agencies
3. Get to 100% Participation – Deal with Privacy &
Pressure issues
4. Fast & High Energy campaign
5. Use competition to your benefit
6. Structure your rewards/incentives to bracket
minimum, medium, and leadership givers
7. Every year at least ONE new idea – ex: Retirees, T-
shirts

3. United Way Campaign Metrics:

4. • How was this possible?
– Make the campaign personal
• Plant Leadership covers the material with all employees
• Everyone MUST respond on solicitation to give (target 100%
participation/response)
– Ensure privacy to allow employees to respond
– Weekly follow-up to solicit their response
• Encourage participation in Day of Caring, but 2100 people
working 12 hour shifts are a challenge, so BRING THE
IMPACT OF UW INTO THE WORKPLACE (local United
Way Video)
• Make it a fast, high energy campaign – like Secretariat at the
Belmont Stakes

5. • How was this possible? (cont)
– Use competition
• Versus other area employers – how do your results rank?
• Versus your “sister facilities”
– Use rewards/incentives
• Employees completing their solicitation forms in first 2 weeks
get entered into raffle for choice of $75 of P&G products or
$100 to United Way of their choice
• Minimum Giving level - $175/yr donation; Get $75-$100 of
P&G product
• Leadership Giving Levels
– $250 (product & entry for UW Parking Space)
– $500 (DOUBLE product & 2 entries for UW Parking Space &
leadership luncheon
• Plant Goal Celebration
– Hit Goal or create new record – EVERY Employee gets a free
“Thanks for your Giving” Meal during Thanksgiving week

16. Our Goal
• Last year we raised a new Mehoopany Record of $367,014
from employees and added a $135,000 corporate match!
• Due to the tough economic situation our communities are
facing, the needs of the community have significantly
increased.
• Benchmarking across Family Care sites shows other sites
give at a higher $/person rate than Mehoopany’s
• Because of this we are setting our goal at $400,000 with
80% of the site giving!!!!
• Campaign Theme – “Lets GO! SIX in a row”
• $400,000 Employee Donations w/ $125,000 Corporate
match. $525,000 Combined Goal!
• 6th year in a row to set an employee donation record!

36. What is our Challenge?
This year because of state budget cuts, every United Way
agency had between 50-100% of their state funding cut.
In order to continue serving our community whether
through flood relief, big brother/sister, Red Cross, or
shelters, we desperately need your donations! If we
don’t hit our goal, these agencies will have little to no
funding.
By contributing to the United Way, you are making the best
investment you can in your hometown. Your money will go
far, but not far away.

matters.
