Employee Giving Campaign: Better Together

This year we are combining the Employee Giving Campaign with the United Way Campaign. Together we will continue to impact our colleagues and our community as we are "Better Together."

Better Together

Dear AnMed Family,

On behalf of the employee giving campaign committee, we are excited to announce our campaign in September 2024 — Better Together! We will continue to combine the AnMed and United Way campaigns and hope you will support this initiative that impacts our teammates, patients and broader community. Our goal this year is to exceed 65% teammate participation through meaningful gifts. We hope you will be a part of helping us transform our community.

Any teammate supporting at $10 per pay period or $260 per year will receive our campaign t-shirt! If you are already a donor at this level — thank you! You will receive your t-shirt from a member of our committee or your department to visually demonstrate your support.

United Way Gift Opportunities

Area of Greatest Need

Funds are used where they are needed most to deliver essential programs and services to meet the needs of our community.

Homeland Park & Varennes School Partnerships

Our children are our community’s most valuable assets so United Way and the Rotary Club of Anderson have teamed up to invest in the children of Homeland Park Primary School & Varennes Elementary School to increase their desire for learning and boost the morale of those helping them to learn in these two schools. We will make a positive change in our community when we make positive changes in our children!

Minority Health Coalition

Two years ago, United Way’s African American Leadership Society re-established a Minority Health Coalition in Anderson County to partner with AnMed, health care workers, other community organizations and agencies to help bridge the gap in health disparities in our minority population.

United Way/AnMed Community Garden

With seed money provided by the South Carolina Department of Agriculture, United Way has teamed up with AnMed to create the Brian White Community Garden at the AnMed North Campus.  To create a healthier community this garden will help teach residents to plant, harvest and prepare fresh vegetables. 

Weekend Snack Pack

Through the Weekend Snackpack program, teachers and counselors at elementary schools in Anderson County, Districts 1-5, identify children who are at the great risk of falling into the Weekend meal gap. The program provides children in need with meals to take home on Fridays. Each enrolled child receives a bag of kid-friendly, ready-to-eat foods on Fridays to take home for the weekend. Children return to school on Monday, well-fed and ready to learn.
