Support humanitarian efforts in the Middle East during the Annual Giving Drive 

/ kcemployeegiving

The ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas has resulted in a dire humanitarian crisis in the Middle East. Thousands of lives have been lost, and many more people have been injured and displaced. Many nonprofit organizations were already on the ground providing aid, and more still are working to ensure immediate and long-term humanitarian aid for Israel, Gaza, and the surrounding region.   

When people are in need anywhere in the world, employees want to help. The King County Employee Giving Program has several nonprofits in the program that are responding. Both short-term and long-term support will be needed.   

How to support ongoing humanitarian efforts during the Annual Giving Drive:    

*Tip*  PeopleSoft is set up to process only one transaction. We suggest you submit your disaster giving donation at the same time as your annual giving pledge. If you have already pledged in PeopleSoft and would like to donate further, simply download the paper pledge form and email a completed copy to employeegiving@kingcounty.gov.

The images and reports coming out of the conflict have been difficult to watch. As a reminder, King County has many support services available through our Making Life Easier (username King County) and Employee Assistance Programs, with counselors and licensed professionals available if you need assistance or just to talk to someone.
