If you donated through payroll deduction, the amount will appear on your T4 slip. Immediate credit card donations will result in an electronic tax receipt being issued on finalization of the donation. The electronic tax receipt will be emailed to you. Please be sure to print your e-receipt for your records. 

United Way British Columbia will issue tax receipts for all other receiptable donations at the close of the campaign. These will be mailed by February of the following year. 

If you are giving through a workplace campaign, payroll deduction will usually be offered as a payment option.  

Click the ‘Give’ option and the list of available payment options will appear. Select ‘Payroll’, enter either a deduction amount per pay period or a total donation amount.  

If you have entered a deduction amount per pay period, ePledge will automatically calculate the total amount based on the number of pay periods your workplace offers. If you have entered a total donation amount, ePledge will automatically calculate the amount per pay based on the number of pay periods your workplace offers.  

Payroll deductions normally begin in January.  

If Payroll does not appear as one of your Payment Options on your screen, please contact UnitedWayeAccess@uwbc.ca 

You can make your total donation using more than one payment type. You will need to complete a separate donation sequence for each distinct payment type. 

Simply make a donation for one particular payment method (e.g. Payroll), then log back into ePledge and make a second donation by a different method (e.g. Immediate credit card). 

Each time you return to ePledge, you will need to enter your User ID and Password. If you have already made a donation, a summary of any transaction will be available to be viewed after you select the ‘Give’ option. You have the option to make an additional gift if you wish, or to edit an existing gift if it has not been finalized by United Way. If you have any questions, please contact UnitedWayeAccess@uwbc.ca
