Northwest Missouri State employees who make payroll deductions to the Northwest Foundation are reminded to check settings on the new Workday system to make sure those deductions are still taking place.
The foundation's chief financial officer, Melissa Wellhausen, says they fielded employee questions after the Workday platform went live on July 1.
Wellhausen says the main thing is that they hope people choose to give and the foundation staff wants to make sure donor's gifts go to their intended destination.
Workday provides Northwest employees with a variety of options. If the donor's choice is not listed, Wellhausen says to select "Other", enter their choice, then contact the foundation office to confirm the selection.
Northwest employees with questions are invited to contact the Foundation office.
Established in 1971, the Northwest Foundation, Inc. operates independently of the state institution as a separate 501(c)3 not-for-profit corporation governed by its own Board of Directors.
