Similar to EPIC, there are many ways you can help support iSMHF:

• Recurring gift from each paycheck
• PTO Donation
• One-time gift (payroll deduction, credit card, or check)

During the launch of the new iSMHF campaign through the benefit open enrollment period, all recurring or one-time paycheck or PTO pledges will start with the October 17, 2024 paycheck.

After open enrollment, new gifts will be deducted two to four weeks after your pledge is submitted.

No, you no longer need to renew your recurring gift every year.

To make changes to your recurring gift, please contact us at 941.917.1286 or HealthcareFoundation@smh.com.

PTO donations are conditional based on your PTO availability. You must maintain the minimum threshold of 80 hours in your PTOA Bank.

When you donate PTO, the number of hours you gift will be deducted from your PTOA Bank. Per IRS regulations, taxes will be deducted for all PTO donations.
