A Positive Difference was created to make it easy for employees to include the hospital in their annual charitable giving. It’s one more way for employees to help our patients and their families, and even a few dollars from your monthly paycheck can help make a positive difference. Employees may choose from 13 funds to support; give $2 or more per paycheck through automatic payroll deduction; and can change the amount or fund they’re giving to at any time through Employee Self Service. Employees enrolled by Sept. 30 will be entered into a drawing with five chances to win a $500 Apple gift card. To enroll in A Positive Difference, log on to Infor, look for the “Employee Giving” box, select “YNHH Positive Difference” and follow the instructions. To make a one-time credit card donation, visit: GiveToYNHH.org/PositiveDifference.
