For CHG HealthCare Services, “Putting People First” is not just a motto; it’s a way of life. Every year, CHG Healthcare hosts a “United Way Week” wherein employees have the opportunity to engage our community through volunteering and financial support donated during the employee charitable giving campaign. This support directly impacts the lives of thousands of children and families, assisting United Way of Salt Lake in our efforts to fulfill our promise to the community to Change the Odds so that all children have the same chance to succeed in school and in life. This year, through outstanding committee efforts, in-tune executive decisions, and following some of United Way of Salt Lake’s Best Practices for a campaign, CHG Healthcare Services set a new company record for their charitable giving campaign! Take a look and see how this was done.

Volunteering. CHG employees value to the opportunity to volunteer in the community. They view volunteering as a way to see their contribution in action – as an opportunity to see how their engagement can literally Change the Odds for children and families.

While the general mentality of the whole week is to have fun, CHG Healthcare services never lost sight of their end goal – to help Change the Odds for children and families in our community. In an effort to see their employee’s contributions go further, CHG Healthcare Services announced a dollar for dollar match on all employee gifts! This level of dedicated support from CHG catapulted their campaign into new record territory!
