UTMB SECC 2025 State Employee Charitable Campaign

This year, we had an opportunity to speak with Lindsey White, the executive director of United Way of Galveston, which helps coordinate the region’s state employee campaigns. In a brief video, she explained United Way’s role, touched upon the tremendous need that exists, and emphasized the importance of UTMB’s contributions large and small. “Listen to your heart,” she advises.   

The UTMB State Employee Charitable Campaign (SECC) 2025 runs through Monday, Nov. 24. So far, we have raised about $76,000. Your contribution through the SECC helps create strong, supportive communities. It feels good to help make the world a slightly better place. Thank you for your consideration, generosity and commitment.

For 31 years, UTMB employees have joined thousands of state workers to make a difference through SECC. Since 1994, our collective generosity has helped raise over $214 million for nonprofits serving Texas, the nation, and the world.

Last year’s impact:

• 14,000 state employees donated $4.4 million
• UTMB contributed $321,000 from more than 1,000 team members
• Funds supported meals for children, housing assistance, education, veteran services, cancer support, environmental advocacy, and more

This year, let’s continue that tradition of giving! SECC makes it easy to support causes you care about—education, health, animal welfare, disaster recovery, and hundreds more.
