For Employees

Join the WakeMed Gives Ambassador Team

​The WakeMed Foundation is looking for passionate and enthusiastic team members to serve as WakeMed Gives Ambassadors — champions who will help share the impact of giving and inspire colleagues to get involved. The campaign will run system-wide throughout October.

This year, the funds raised will continue to support employee-centered programs including the Employee Assistance Fund, employee education, and employee mental health and well-being initiatives. There will also be an opportunity for donors to support WakeMed’s new mental health hospital in Garner.

See MyWakeMed or WakeMed Weekly for information on how to sign up to be a WakeMed Gives Ambassador.

We encourage you to sign up by August 15.
